Stunning work :smt007

I guess your a short butt like me and the 400 is great size :smt003

Always liked the idea of a twin turbo so now I know what to do with my H1 rad to free up some space :smt002

How's the handling with the single sided arm ? I've seen them done on the ZRX400 but prefer the twin shock look for that bike.

I've a pair of J2(SP) fully adjustable front forks if your ever looking for a change :smt001

ATB,

MM!

BHP = 87~94 ???
Nothing worse than having an H and not being able to scratch it !

well its not going to fast atm

i have only taken it on 1 test ride and it didnt go to well

so now im upgrading the fuel surply as the pump pressure cant overcome the boost pressure in the bowls and when the bowls empty they cant refill

but that should be done by this weekend ready for another test run

i will dyno it when i get it going well im hoping for 80hp but im gona have to run it on really low boost to start off with as i havent lowered the compression so 80 hp is a while away yet

i cant really comment on the handling yet as ive hardly been down my street and back on it but ill keep you posted
