clivegto Posted November 11, 2021 Posted November 11, 2021 Got a hi flo petrol tap second hand but looks like new so it didn't cost the earth. Don't think I will have any fuel flo problem's now. 4 Quote
clivegto Posted November 13, 2021 Posted November 13, 2021 Got a fitting for a lambda sensor then got Will to weld it onto the slash cut exhaust underneath about half way down with his tig. Just about set for dyno day at the end of the month now. 2 Quote
clivegto Posted November 30, 2021 Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) Took the Magnum to @Allspeedsdyno today which was an interesting afternoon. We ended up going up to 137. 5 main jets, 2nd clip from bottom on needles, 3 turns out on air mixture screws. Bike made 260.51 hp @9570 revs and 147.33 ftb @ 8050 revs, max boost was 14.55 @ 9500 revs. Not to shabby for a home shed build. It needs a bit more fuel at top end so maybe 140 or 142.5 main jets Nick thinks. Edited November 30, 2021 by clivegto 9 Quote
Allspeeds Posted November 30, 2021 Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) We went from 130 mains to 137.5 I think it wants 140 maybe 142.5 to just sit under 12afr balanced carbs and ajusted needles made a big difference though really sweet at normal riding TPS points Edited November 30, 2021 by Allspeeds Spelling spaz 3 Quote

Webby Posted December 2, 2021 Posted December 2, 2021 Reading about your build made me sign up to OSS (which i should have done ages ago!), mainly to say great work, great attention to detail. That's a bike i'd like a closer look round, love it 1 Quote

Need a 13mm spacer making up & welding in then re-weld the brace back in. Sort the top shock mount out on the top brace. Get drag slots made get them welded in, may use stepped drag slots, we will see. Braced will be at least 75mm forward of where they were. Pics are just a mock up. Blimey...ballsy work! 1 Quote

GSX1100dreamn Posted February 27, 2022 Posted February 27, 2022 I had to do a quick check of your country location when I saw Dick Johnsons #17 Sierra in the background. Stuff turns up in the strangest places. Nice bike. 1 Quote

GSX1100dreamn Posted February 28, 2022 Posted February 28, 2022 Strange/ normal/ special , Just like our Suzuki's Googled FB NY500 looks like cool place to go. 1 Quote
clivegto Posted June 11, 2022 Posted June 11, 2022 I spoke to someone that runs the same mechanical scavange pump as me who raced at the salt flats. He said the pump gears eat into the aluminium end case so he fitted a brass bush insert into the case. Took mine to bits for a look see and sure enough it had marked it a little. So I got Gsxrsam to fit a phosphor bronze insert into the end of the scavange pump 8 Quote
clivegto Posted June 12, 2022 Posted June 12, 2022 After riding the Turbo Magnum a bit it didn't feel quite right handling wise like it had a bit of a wallow even in a straight line. So I took the front end to bits. Turned out one of the dust seals on the head stock was rubbing on the frame just a little bit. Fitted new bearings and different dust seals and went for a spin today. Hey presto problem solved an what a beast this thing is. Am now thinking the back shock is a bit stiff but happy days 5 Quote
denisd Posted June 12, 2022 Posted June 12, 2022 I must do some serious research into turbo stuff, I'm getting the itch. Nice work lad 1 Quote
