Ive got an idea-if i get a spare set of sidecovers-to modify them with strakes( like a Ferrari Testarossa) & fine Aliminium mesh

All back together-just need to fit clutch actuator parts & 2nd hand rear M/Cylinder

**psyguy** · 8th July 2008, 16:53

are those upgraded calipers on factory rotors?

93 CBR 600 calipers, RGV 250 M/Cyl- not so good. Want to use R1

Old mans shed in Kati has a good proportion of NZ's XS850's/750's and alot of new parts to put one back on the road.
I have been tempted to put one of them back on the road as a cafe' fighter - but everytime i look at the pile it looks like a graveyard.
really need to get the fazer sorted first.
Any one seen a turbo xs? would it require much if you ran low boost (say 8psi). I wouldn't mind a triple turbo - would give the old man a bit a fright to see a 20 year old triple with more hp than his new Daytona.

''Okay then, here it comes fromt front to rear:
FZR1000 USD front fork with KAD monoblock sixpacks, YZF750 discs, 140 front tire, Phoenix wheel 3,5x17 , RGV250 front mudguard widened, YZF750 handlebars with milled oil reservoirs.
Honda SP-1 clocks, RB fuel ratio gauge, gastank widened to accept 36 liters in stead of 24, double pingel fuelcocks, return line for DFI.
Engine now stock except for 6:1 in stead of 9.2:1 comp. Aerocharger (max 15 psi, integrated waste gate, variable vanes, own oil reservoir) fitted with handmade manifold and doublesided intercooler. New oil filter base plate with integrated thermostat and outlets for cooler and for car type filter. Intake side has an altered Kawasaki 750 turbo DFI set-up with 1100 injectors, welded-shut airbox. Mounted on airbox are two waste gate/ intake membrane combinations from a Yamaha 650 turbo. Engine management (fuel and ign) is TEC from Electromotiv and is PC programmable. Power output was 220 (european) hp, torque 303 Nm / 1900 rpm (I have no clue what that is in US numbers.....) last time it was on the dyno. The alternator has been replaced by a FZR1000 one with a belt drive. Clutch actuation is hydraulic.
Footrests and controls are handmade in combination with some Kawasaki and Ducati parts.
Exhaust is titanium from Bos, sound is social. Not loud at all.
Seat is mono from a YZF750SP and covers the Bosch fuel pump and filter, the R1 battery and the Electromotiv. Swingarm and shaft(drive) are from a Yamaha FJR1300 fitted with a CBR900 top brace but now at the bottam and a GSXR1100 shock mount welded to it. Shock on the pics is from a 1999 R1, now replaced with an Öhlins for the same. Rear wheel is also a Phoenix wheel 6x19, originally for a GSXR1100 but with the cushdrive modified to accept the Yamaha drive, and fitted with a 210x17 rear tire, rear brake is GSXR1100, caliper is from an R1 modified to fit.
Well, that was a mouth full. I also have a couple of other bikes but i will not bother you with that apart from the fact that one of them is a black 1980 2H9 with 17000km which I recently bought in Austria to make it as new (still looking for a set of original exhausts, anyone? )
My girlfriend rides the black special with the 3 -spokers.
Have fun!
