Extremely TRIK GSX-R1100 [ Under Construction
]
This
is the story of Wayne's GSX-R1100 and SevenEleven, continually updated
as work progresses. The text may be a bit erratic at the time because
it's the composition of various e-mails with updates.
The bike started as a '92 GSX-R1100N in near mint condition,
so I thought let's sell my R1 and do something different to the
Suzuki. A lot of my mates where asking what I had bought such an
old relic for and not to many have seen the changes yet.
Two years ago I had a 89 GSX-R7/11 "K" chassis with a
full Tony Scott blueprinted "M" motor and "M"
running gear. Fortunately the guy that bought it wanted to sell
it just at the right time to tie up with this project.
He had only done 700 miles on it since he bought it as he had nearly
flipped it a few times and scared himself to death!
So out cam the lump (breaking four exhaust studs) head off and down
to the machine shop where they broke two cutting tools trying to
remove the old studs.
Once done it was rubbed down and prepped and painted by me in satin
black and put back in the 1100N. I've added a Dyna 2000 ignition
system, billet covers, see through clutch, 50bhp NOS to be fitted
on return from welding off subframe, billet-6 calipers up front
and billet-4 at the rear.
All
engineering is done by T.E.S. performance and the subframe is being
done next week.
Brief specs are... Tony Scott breathed on engine, dialed in cams,
blue printed bottom end, 50 bhp nitrous, 4"billet yokes, billet
engine cases, see-through clutch cover, loads of braided lines,
billet rear cam feed instead of "y" feed line, 6 pot harrisons/rear
harrison caliper, polished everything.
Still waiting for front
guard, yokes and adjustable rear subframe (hopefully being done
next week). Fitting NOS kit this weekend(cant fit bottle till subframes
done). Have a photo of bike before I dived into it and a bit of
history on the Scott engine. Have brought a GSXR750K to fit the
standard engine into and Johns all ready started on the body work
for that one, concentrating on finishing this one first though.
The exhaust is a Devil race system i got cheap from old stock, It's
being altered though to have two side exiting (sort of turn out)
pipes that will run up underneath the tail unit.
My bikes still not finished its at TES performance
engineering at the moment having subframe, billet yokes, polished
forks and front wheel, under seat exhaust which will exit at either
side off the tail unit like a sort of "Y" if you could
see from above.They might be able to sort out the swingarm to a
single sided "shotgun"-style as well but i am moving house
soon so its all against the clock. |
