[Bakker Turbo]

Your black turbo slabbie is one of my all time favourite OSS bikes.

Its taken apart and sold in bits an pieces i needed the efi system and turbo for the bakker, its getting ressurected in scotland by Blair Maccaul going too loopy's for a draw through set up next month.

So this is how i found it, aircooled lump in there.

Lots of story's where told about the bike but i believe non of them, owner said it's with a Former Heron Bike, then dragraced with a blow through System, another lump 1340 cc was available with an atp draw through system but i cannot believe it was ever in the frame cause it just would not fit with the tank.(wich was leaking at 5 points)

Bought some zx10R wheels hoping i could make them fit the bike, i was Lucky that i could mill of 2,5 cm of the sprocket hanger too get it alligned

So next was too fit the gsxr engine i took from my turboslabby, i felt a bit worried taking out the grinder and hacksaw too make and fit new enginemounts but it needed too be done so i crossed my fingers and started...

Engine was placed 5 mm offcenter in order too get chainclearence together with the milled down carrier.

First Prep with ET Headlamp and fatbars.

Brackets too fit the ET

Chain Alignment Spot on !

Did not like the fatbars soo i went for clip ons the other way round

Sooo

I Bumped into a Nico Bakker Frame, Nico Bakker is  a well known frame builder here in the Netherlands, racers like agostini, will hartog and so on bought there framesk .

Nico Bakker also does work for manufacturers like BMW (cantilever system), Yamaha (single sided front end) he developt that for them strange enough Nico did not got rich by inventing that for them.

About the frame i bumped into it while i was surfing the web a guy asked what is was really worth and had no time to work on it in fact he had the bike for twenty years and it just stood in the corner.

So i found out where too reach him and gave him a call, after talking for over an hour he said he did not know for sure if he wanted  setoll, he said stop by and we can talk about it.

So i stopped by and took my slabby wich was efi, turbocharged, and that was excactly what his plan was with the bakker wich was my luck. He liked the thought of me building the bike too the specs he wanted for it. It took about tw it for two months until he gave me a call and we talked money i didnt got it for free but its a one of frame so i am not complaining.

Too bad i needed too take apart the slabby for parts.

 

This is how i got it.

WP front end, WP rearshock, Alloy formula one Bakker Frame, AP Lockheed 4 pistons brakes, PVM frontwheel, Bimota rearwheel.

The bike was build for Aircooled engine but i left the engine with the seller.

And this is the colourscheme i had in mind for it...
