Original 1100 motor recently refreshed after being saved from a shed(been off the road since 1998) by the guy I am buying it off and ripe for a turbo next year...unless I win the lottery before then Quote Link to comment
Paulm Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Turbos rule,expensive motor to turbo though. Quote Link to comment
Simbec1863 Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 Thats what I heard but i'm in no rush as I still have my RGV to finish first, may just go for a big bore and tune instead if I can't raise the cash before I'm 60.. 1 Quote Link to comment

Don't think so it's been off the road since 98 and was still standard Suzuki blue until 2 years ago when the bloke i'm buying it off started restoring it. He didn't mention it being in the mag when I went to view it. Edited March 7, 2017 by Simbec1863 Quote Link to comment

Cheers Paul Mainly polishing this yearas I still have to sort my 2 stroke money pit outso for now a bit of rebadging and more polishing.... I need to save up cash for engine mods,big bore kit and maybe a supercharger if it's cheaper than the turbo option. I volunteered for permanent nights until August to try and get some extra cash.

Simbec1863 Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share Posted March 13, 2017 (edited) On nights tonight so spent this morning sorting a few mechanical issues found after a quick blast at the weekend. Treated the alloy bits with wheel sealant to make the task of cleaning less of a ball ache. Ordered some badges and decals off eblag,and need to sort engine breather and rear indicators at the weekend Edited March 13, 2017 by Simbec1863 8 Quote Link to comment
