500 # "Girls Bike" could have a built in Hair Dryer to help the owner look good as this real (Updated to 165 HP now back down to 1200 CI) 140 foot lbs of torque (& not HP/sorry for the misinformation) banshee will smoke those who wish to try it out. The modified motor has been tested and ridden in the bikes original frame and suspension. Within a few weeks of getting groceries, the frame was falling apart. A clear spray was applied and constant inspection for stress cracks was necessary. Many frame parts were modified in order to keep the thing from becoming unglued. The suspension is now being installed, now we are sure it will not crash from frame and related parts failure such as the neck stress. It will be up hopefully this weekend where a movie hosted on U-Tube and previewed here for your viewing pleasure. It can not be too dramatic as a rear tire costs $300+ (as you guys already know). Roll-on's are a must.   " /> 500 # "Girls Bike" could have a built in Hair Dryer to help the owner look good as this real (Updated to 165 HP now back down to 1200 CI) 140 foot lbs of torque (& not HP/sorry for the misinformation) banshee will smoke those who wish to try it out.

New Turbo Sportster w/Ohlins Suspension

    The second bike out of three is coming together. Since we all would like to believe that a Sportster is a girls bike, this one was done in black with little chrome & no pink.  It is located in W. Austrailia and I can personally say God makes the nicest people in Austrailia.  This owner is a pleasure to work with!!

    The slight modifications are a set of R&T Ohlins 800 mm (31 1/2") forks, my triple trees, Brembo MonoBlock calipers w/my pads, Metal Matrix Ceramic 320 mm rotors (4.2 #/pair), and a 17" Sun Aluminum front wheel to match the back. The fender bracket will be made within the week to support the C/F fender (do not wish to weigh it down) The rear are a pair of my #5~#2 Ohlins. As the fork & wheel looked as we were designing and building it:

    As all like to point out that these little cuties are docile, the bike started out brand new with a 100 CI conversion kit. All was built so this little ">500 # "Girls Bike" could have a built in Hair Dryer to help the owner look good as this real (Updated to 165 HP now back down to 1200 CI) 140 foot lbs of torque (& not HP/sorry for the misinformation) banshee will smoke those who wish to try it out.

    I have a tonne of pics of the turbo sporty. As mentioned I got the front end and rear shocks from Howard at motorcycle metal . The turbo, oil cooler, cosmetics, and hours of help from Westside customs in Perth. The bike with the 100cuber was a separate project and broke lol .. this one has worked great , the engine is stock with turbo strapped to the side - running at about 120 bhp.. The new suspension, brakes, and trees etc. Work a treat ..

    Bike still not finished need to do some more to the rear and a bit more bling...

    When I finish the bike it will still be cheaper than a stock softail !!! And yep I'm gonna change the seat I'm sick of riding and not being able to feel my nuts...

    The bike with stock motor launches well and before you know it the jap bikes are all behind you..

    At least now I can stop ... : ) Best bike I have ever had by far.. Handles like a motard lol.. Every dollar well worth it...

    I used to run big loud pipes with a blacked out minimalist look..

    This is soooooo much better....

    I had asked the owner of this bike to stop on by.  Who knows, he may like it?  Great Guy and a real pleasure to know.  Would like to ride with him but I think I would be very confused:

    1. I would have to ride on the wrong side of the road
    2. Change my kickstand to the other side of the bike
    3. Spend all day warding off man killing:  Jellyfish, Spiders Crocks, Snakes, hell just about everything down there is deadly, and then have to watch my toilet spin the other way after coffee.

     I am hosting some photos of this bike on my web site that the owner sent me that was taken by his cell phone for your pleasure.  When the bike is actually streetable he will have some photos of him riding at the track.  The owner is a Sport Bike rider and had raced internationally.  Illegally on the street he has fooled around with a few Sport Bike riders and burned them through the twisties as well as full roll on acceleration.  He says he is not close enough to look at that look of disbelief when he blew them off.  A new day has come and the sport bike world needs to make way.

    Update, the 100 CI motor parts were taken off and the motor returned to 1200 CC's/80CI.  I was told that the frame kept braking and the wheelspin was uncontrolable.   The 100 CI is going on his wifes new Bobber.
