Leblowski Posted July 22, 2015 Author Posted July 22, 2015 Bike was finished so first shakedown, woopdidoddooooo it was ridicilous big torgue in fifth gear wich my lock up coildnt cope with at speeds over 200 kmh.After checking my logs i discover it made about 18 psi off boost, i made a mistake with putting in the wrong tialwastegate springs..... so changed that and als putted some weight on the lock up.So currently i am running about 12 psi off boost wich still is fun the bike wheelies till 4th gear.In the begining i had big problems with air in my fuellines, it took air under hard braking so i made some alloy tanks underneath my tank as a buffer but that did not work at all.So changed the place of the fuelpump wich seems to be working i reckon the fuelline too the pump is enough for a buffer.Welded cause there is limited space.

Kid Kearsley Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Very Kool Sander. Very Kool indeed. Now give it some Gas ;) 1 Quote
SiBag Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 I'm not normally a fan of Baker frames, but this one looks like it has purpose.Reminds me a little of a JMC frame. Awesome build this, loving the engineering and design. Quote
slingy1157 Posted July 26, 2015 Posted July 26, 2015 Oh my god Sander, when I started reading this thread I couldn't believe you were pulling the slabby apart as it looked so good, but..........I take my hat off too you for creating one of the most unique and stunning turbo bikes I have seen. Luv it and I am sure the original owner will be satisfied in the knowledge you have given life to it. Bloody Awesome!! Quote
Leblowski Posted August 2, 2015 Author Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) Thanks for all the kind reply's i really love this bike. Never had a bike that corners so good as this one.It still has some small issues though, i need too get suspension set up proper, rearbrake does no brake so wel wich isnt handy cos it wheelies maybe do something with groundclearence of my exhaust it touches the tarmac now and then.still have too play with my ignition map etc.but despite that its a pretty good bike to ride, will take it too Elvington coming month Edited August 2, 2015 by Leblowski 3 Quote
R1guy Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Love the paint on this, at a glance the bike looks like something that could almost be stock.but the more you look , the more cool little details it has 2 Quote
kenty Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 fantastic build ,,, looks proper in those colours ... 1 Quote
spondonturbo Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 great build Sander. As Kenty says, those colours suit it. Pity you are not a bit nearer as a trip to Maxton would sort your suspension. Trick frame, suzuki engine and turbo all the right ingredients! congrats on bike of the month 1 Quote
Jelly Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 There are also a few companies over here which could do that @spondonturbo. I reckon Sander will probably pop over to HK suspension or Hyperpro. My favourite OSS bike of the moment! Quote
Captain Chaos Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 +1 vote for Hyperpro from me. Quality stuff. Quote
Leblowski Posted August 7, 2015 Author Posted August 7, 2015 Bike of the month really cool!I will take my bike too hyperpro already talked to them, they did my slabby turbo also wich they did a very good job on.But suspension is for next year, only have about three weeks left too ride the bakker before I get some surgery.After that i am not allowed to ride for about 12 months.

Rene EFE Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 I can keep the wheels turning on both bikes if you want, because I'm like that 3 Quote
Jay_111 Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 That is extraordinary. Excellent skills and a propoerly different and brutal looking bike. Quote
RojoMojo Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 Wow, the bike screams oldskool attitude, love it, great build. Quote
Blubber Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Wow... cool bike. very well executed. Looks kinda stockish... which works for me (en... succes met de operatie) Quote
Kristjan Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 Gorgeous. The frame with it's wideness makes it all look very muscle. It just shouts "I'm not your regular one" at your face. Quote
