I broke it. Lost a bit of power and didnt sound right. Left it alone. Good job. Bearings on 2+3 con rods are mostly glitter in the sump. I suspect the crank shells in the middle are none too clever too. Engine build number 3 this week ready for Pendine this weekend. What fun.
That didn't take long to get to bits Rob, Any idea of cause ?

Just a quick thanks to all I met from the site Today, great to put faces to names and bikes to faces gotta say some lovely bikes about but especially on OSS stand as you would expect !!! Ta.

Wow someone was looking down on you that day, Oil and tyres are two words you should never hear together, lol. It makes you think about the quality and research of OEM parts doesn't it.

Motor looks super clean and great job on carbs.
Is there a tale we need to hear about manual chain adjusters ?

Diebythereaper could you put some pics up of your external gate setup on here very interested, Thanks again everyone for sharing info.

Thanks for all the replies. MeanBean your IHI sounds the biz I have been looking but haven't seen one for sale new or even used most Subaru seem to have TD05 fitted.

To add a little motor will be 1200 bandit out to 1216 with Busa pistons. Blowthrough for street use, I do not have a set power I want but would like over 200 if possible and something that pulls strong from quite low down.
Thanks for the replies

Hi , As I was passing I called in to see Dave Dunlop today had a bit crack about recommended Turbos.
He suggested speaking to others with turbobikes so I wondered what are you running or have run good or bad and how much power.
How many are running Chinese ?
Any advice greatly appreciated.
-
OK, Today I collected my bushes.
I cannot thank the people who posted here enough, I was convinced I needed my wheel in the centre of the swingarm and that in the centre of the frame. I wasn't even thinking about the wheel being in the centre of the bike.
I am posting some pics on my build thread for anyone interested or others who follow.
Thread title Another ET Turbo
Thanks Mick.

Yes Paul I do like yours and the Blue/black.
As you know it was your bike that got me on the ET road. maybe I will go the blue black this week,lol
-
Thanks for sharing those pics John, I knew I had seen some pics before showing cutouts for chain run you just reminded me where !!
-
It will be a ET look but the colour changes every week, lol, I was stuck on Black then saw a real nice red one on that site.
Did you see it, it was a real nice bike, I wish I kept a pic now.

Ahhh the full Gucci wheels Paul,lol

Thanks for the input guys , I am sorting the forks first so I can try and get an idea where the rear wheel is actually sitting.
I wonder if there is anything stopping you removing the sprocket studs and bolting it on for more clearance ?
I have never seen one bolted but why ?
