Cheers Nick.

Some Turbo friends came to visit the Turbo Magnum & the Turbo Scratcher.

Yea. My b12 turbo bike with cable clutch and coil spring conversion with a lockup clutch is the lightest of them all. Will not be doing the fancy hydraulic thing any time soon again.

Good to go then.

Where the normal cooler would be is a head cooler, the one up front is the main engine cooler.

I did nearly fit a wide cooler but wanted to keep it looking compact and the 2 coolers combined hold more oil than my other turbo bike with a extra wide cooler.

Coz I pushed it outside.

Though the tdo5 was 3 bolt exhaust flange (yes I said flange )

BBQ at my house afterwards.

There always has to be a compromise unfortunately. Have ordered one.

Got yaa

Maybe I need a 19rcs ?

TDO4L will fit.

Cheers.

Fantastic, so it's home again by the looks of it.

Very practical and works. Looks trick as well

Yes been thinking that might be the problem perhaps, thanks. Coil spring conversion on a b12 bottom end with a lock up clutch. Have now converted it back to a b12 clutch with a lock up clutch. Still the same more or less.

Got a new SPS lithium Ion battery same as the one I have had on my other turbo bike for nearly 5 years now as the JMT one gave up. Also messed around with different clutch pushrod lengths to no avail to stop the clutch drag. Whatever I did it aither dragged or slipped. Took coil spring clutch conversion to bits, put it back together and was slightly better. Will be taking it to bits again tomorrow. On the plus side engine runs sweet on low revs round the yard.

Spare vf23 mate.

Slightly exaggerated but the bit I have marked in silver can be removed. Not a good idea to remove to much material at the hinge side as it can jam the door when closing.

So true bud.

Hopefully will get a closer look see dyno day.

So I tried a few things with the carbs to no avail + shit load of plugs and even a different cdi. Was starting to get really annoyed with it . Then I though why not try a set of carbs I know to be good and hey presto she started up and ran like a pussy cat, a big pussy cat that is. Rode it round the yard clutch is dragging badly but I am really pleased .

Thanks, yes I did think that at the time . One step forward & 2 back. Just needs more time & effort. Am so looking forward to taking it for a proper spin

Fitted the tank today then filled with petrol no leaks and return was working to the tank. Tried to fire her up an locked solid. After a bit of investigation number 4 sylinder was locked with fuel . After removing plugs to clear the problem I did get it to fire up for a short while with a lot of flames coming out of the exhaust but not for long. So next step is investigate the carbs.
