hi everyone i just bought this 2005 zr900 today and i want to make it faster any ideas what parts i can add on to make her faster ...

You could buy mine for the price of what it would cost for a big bore kit. It makes 185horse and has the 10.4 clutch extra heads and cdi's. If its an efi I have a complete engine that is a 990 big bore complete.

I would update the track shaft before I did anything else...Do a search, lots of go fast info on this site...BTW thats a 2004.

x2 on the 2004 & track shaft.

I'd update the primary weights to at least 83 gr if the rider weight is under 175 lbs. Also look into getting an engine torque arm, just be sure your clutches are alligned before installing the torque arm. I bought a 10.4 secondary but never felt the need to install it on my 05 ZR900 so I have no input on it with the 900's. But the 10.4 has kept my 05 F7 running alongside the 06 F7's.

Track, clutch, reeds.....$1000.00 buys you 3-4 mph.....other then that.....trade it in for a F1000! Good luck!

These guys have been pretty much bang on but I'll add some more: airbox modification, BMP pipe mod $200. DD Y pipe $120, Reeds $250, plus the mentioned torque link $100, that's the must haves. then if you can get good fuel, for the $ you can't beat a timing key. all in all you will not see much more than a 4-5mph increase up top, if that, you will gain acceleration and torque. yes it looks to be an 04.

I would have bought a bigger sled for an extra $1000.00

Im looking now for a f1000 snowpro orange and white ...i heard they will get up and go...the zr 900 is in the shop waitin for sum parts to come in thank you for your opinons ...i might need more info if i find a use f1000 ..not use workin on cats just skidoo

A 100% stock 1000 is not That much more of a performer than a stock Ddrive 900. If you want more, be prepared to open the wallet.

I'll second what he said.

x3 here, I know some f1 owners that are still tryin to get past the good workin 9's, not to mention the zr chassis will out rock anything in the twisty's

Mostly what the other guys said.
Make sure the DD is updated. Putting in the 10.4 sec makes it much nicer to drive through the trails with the lower drive-away speed.Torque arm is a must IMO. You can add all the speed parts, but if your clutches shift out all the way, and your gearing is stock and the Rpms at WOT stay at 7400-7500, your top-end speed is not gonna be increased-- (snow conditions not considered). The sled may get there quicker, but not necessarily a Faster Mph, but at what MPG loss? Clutch it,stud it, align clutches and have fun with it! snap

P.S.- if you just bought it, how do you know that it needs to go faster?-- ride it 1st.

Me and sum friends were out playin in the grass feilds and i think it could faster still ...

My 03 has Bikeman stealth pipe, head's, reeds, torque arm, valves shimmed, etc, the clutching set up on the dyno (165hp). It rip's. GPS'd 126. It's gonna be for sale in a few week's if anyone's interested.

i might be intrested

$3200.00 I think it has about 3000 miles on it I'd have to check when I get a chance.

wow nice sled i wonder how much it would cost to get it to canada?if its not that bad to get it shipped to canada i def want to buy it
