There can't be many 810 Yoshis still running, I would relish the idea and would think in a cafe racer then it's very desirable to prospective buyers!!
1971 CB750
1974 CB750

I would guess it depends what the bike is used for and what other engine mods it has - ie, cams, etc. I am no expert, but would guess that the 810 kit is high compression where the benefits are felt in the higher rev range - so depends how the bike is going to be used as to the practical benefit. I fitted a 836 standard compression kit to give an increase in torque across the rev range.
Current Bikes:-
Honda CB750K2 (1975)

Honda CR750 Replica (1972)

Kawasaki ZZR1100D3 (1995)
Kawasaki ZZR250 (1990) Project (Going on eBay ASAP)
