JEFF Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 1100 is capable of more power reliably than the 998. Stock, 998. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted March 14, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted March 14, 2018 Volume is volume. 1100 while benefiting from more years of tuners cranking them up can make huge power. Full mod: 1100 Trailability at "near" stock levels: 998 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a ton of low dollar 1100's with extensive, trailable mods. Because of this its cheaper to own but not really cheaper to mod. Personally I like the sound of the triple much better. Ease of mod is relatively the same with stock internals. Durability I would say is pretty equal knowing what we know right now. Both seem to handle up to around 280-300 HP without doing much to the existing engine. Maybe a slight nod to the 998 because I'm not sure I would go that high on the 1100 without aftermarket head studs. I got an 2011 Z1T that I run DD stuff at around 270-290 and a 18 Winder that I run Hurricane 290 kit on. They are virtually a dead heat up to 1000' with rider weight being equal. Right now you can buy good, fairly low mileage boosted z1's under $6000. Not much more for boosted 1100 procross versions. I would think boosted Tcats or Winders would be another $5-7 grand. Those two new with flasher/studs/clutching/exhaust will run you upwards of $15-$18 grand. There will be some really good deals on leftover Sidewinders coming. My dealer has 17's still on the floor. With the mods listed above expect to spend about $2 grand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
