My Suzuki 1402cc turbo

Home now.

Today I got 401.1km from 21.2lt, just under 5.3l/100km

Fuse issue definitely sorted too!

good news.

This thing's awesome :D Good work mate, don't go spearing off into anything now!

[Shifty]

Yeah was concerned about popping something important, dropping ignition on boost, or catching fire

Thanks Jim. How's the Hardly Dangerous going?

[Jim]

yeah it's going good. saving up to do some mods on it myself though nothing as radical as yours.

Fuck me drunk. I had a bit of a blast on this today and I'm still giggling.

Very very tractable and easy to ride. Stands up in the first three gears but not as bad for me as it is for Shifty (given that I am twice the man he is :D)

Roll the throttle in and try and hang onto it as it turns the scenery into a fucking blur. Click the next gear and the cun't back on boost and it's screaming it's head off again. I reckon it does 100- 200 in about three seconds. Fuck knows what fourth gear is like :D

Pretty much the most mental thing I have ever ridden. Makes the gixxer thou/ blackbirds I have ridden seem very tame (and that is saying something!)

The delivery is seamless but quite silly. It comes on very hard but not silly hard. If anything I reckon it might be faster/ more insane if the delivery was a bit less linear. Maybe cams or some more boost up top would turn it impossibly mental. It would be hard to genuinely say it needs more power though :D

All in all- fucking unreal. Cheers shifty.

This fuel economy

Nice work Shifty.

Gave it a good wash today, looks much better. Could use another wash as it has been a while between drinks, so a few bits need extra scrubbing and I also missed a couple of bits here and there... but it looks 200 times better.

Also put the gauge cups back on, and fitted up the front guard. Having had it with the front guard for so long it looks a bit funny but I'll get used to it I'm sure. If not I'll look at getting a smaller one or something so it looks a little more minimalist.

Had a pillion on it for the first time today, scraped like a mofo with the extra 60kg on it when I hooked around a corner. Will have to fit those shock risers I was looking at a while back!

I've ridden it with full boost and I agree. It's nuts.
(and I chickened out at about 7.5k rpm in 2nd and 3rd)

[Shifty]

All clean and shiny like!

[demuire]

Heh, it looks so... unassuming :p

[Shifty]

Not wrong! Once you look for a bit you notice the braided lines, six-pots, turbocharger, hehe.

I want to convert it back to standard mirrors as well, wil do that in the next few weeks - I have a set tee'd up, just need to get them.

Also my chain seems to have stretched like a bee-atch, skipping teeth under hard load! I'll check it out and as long as the sprockets are good I'll just re-adjust it as she'll be apples.

[Shifty]

first turbo bike in clem7 ftw

unless there was another turbo bike between 10pm and 7am

[Shifty]

bike washed and looking surprisingly mint

chain adjusted etc, looks all good to me and rides like a new bike

i have this now so i can run 60psi safely



getting a 500hp fuel pump soon, so it should be good to ride with 60psi and 500hp.

[to4garret]

[Shifty]

got it s/h off boostcruising, cheep cheep

i would never buy this shit new
