Thanks for putting the thread back on track guys. Good way to handle a difficult problem.
No more responses from me to Frank's provocations. Unless of course actually does drive his Busa to Toronto and attempt to run it up my ass.
I saw carbon fiber wheels at a Toronto bike show last winter. Don't remember the manufacturer. What I DO remember is that a) they wanted $5K for the pair which would be about $3K U.S. and b) their weight in the hand was damn near negligible.
That must make for some interesting road feel.
You could dial in less damping because the reduced unsprung weight would track bumps better and you could go around corners faster!
One more item for my wish list. A Yamaha factory Super Bike rider named Paul who teaches at the R.A.C.E. school in Toronto to go on the track every time I do so he can keep encouraging me to go faster and safer.

Vegas, K is right, Ohlins rear is not adjustable in stock Busa form. I put one on, it turned out to be 1-2 inches longer [unmeasured].
Fortunately, it was about right, together with dropping the triple clamps to restore weight distribution and geometry. A great shock, totally happy, ran it over four sets of screwed-up highway whoops at a steady 120 [on Dunlop 207GPs] and it stuck beautifully.
Ride height adjustment would be more versatile, though, and the Penske is about the same price as the stock Ohlins. Don't know how it works.

If you had no ego I would tell you that all you need to fix the kickstand is to think about the tension strength of the spring in relation to the pivot point of where the stand meets the frame........Think long and hard about this and use trigonometry.....
Sorry about the edits but I have been riding a clysdale (sic) for quite a while this eveing.

I have read you’re other posts..... I am not sure if you should attempt to circumvent the exhaust side or just focus on taking the whole deal in a different direction.....You are on the right tract though if you are asking this question. I have not the answer for which you are searching though without some R&D............you need to look at all the possibilities.....think about it though because there are concepts which need to be discovered..........you are right to focus on the chamber though because that is what burns impellors (sic)

One more note for you Adams.
If you wish to subject me to the seeping pus from your diseased mind, please do the other Members and my family the favor of not smearing it in their faces, too.
My e-mail at work is pl@exclusivecom.com.
Send your pus there and keep it off here.

So far as shocks, we ran Ohlins last year, this year Penske. The big change was insupport of the product. Ohlins were real stuck on themselves. Penske bent over backwards to help us.
AP & PFM are the same brakes (PFM makes them for AP, or is it the other way around?), you can get them from 2-Bros, BrakeTech, or Yoyodyne Titanium. It will take around 4 weeks to get them from the UK. Mine will be here next week, or so they tell me.

Dymag and PVM make carbon wheels, Superbike Racing in Georgia is the world distributor for Dymag's carbon products. Andrew is the man to speak to down there at Superbike. Don't know of a PVM dist in US.
Yosh sells a $3,000 hand made aluminum *Tornado* gas tank. Stage1 Yosh cams are just about here in the states (3 weeks).
How come nobody but JeffW has ever mentioned brake upgrades?
AP in Georgia has a kit available and PFM's are available from Yoyodyne, Nissin's are available from BrakeTec in Cal.
RAM makes a single sided swingarm for the Busa in aluminum and magnesium.
There are two companies in Japan makeing Carbon Fiber Bodywork(all parts).
Billet rearsets, tripple clamps/clip-ons, and countershaft covers are available in Japan.
Windscreens are available from Zero Gravity(3 versions) and Magical Racing($400 iridium).
There is a lot of stuff that is here now, in the future the bikes will have this stuff as stock, look back ten years and look what your 10,500 buys today.
The Busa is best bang for the Buck!

Frank is in bed with his wife he is not a homo (like you did not know this).
I am riding the cylisdale (sic) so here goes.
Build the clutch in the busa (Suzuk has the springs look at what DP said today and therin lies the answer it is complicated but schintze (sic) is not the answer......
Turbo charge the motor with a variable boost system.....look this up Mr. Turbo does not make it.........ask Maui to read up on this because he is interested.....
What he knows about flames in the chamber will answer the question and he can make some cash even if his miller is from the 1800s.....Maui look at the impellor (sic) you know what I mean I am talking about a bigger pickup to draw the flame????? Think about it Maui and ask Pete for his input.......
Run it at less than 10psi unless you have the cash to break the cases and play with the head talk to Lee if so because he is on the right track with the airbox......
Figure out how to stop it from breaking the rear wheel above 5grand on the tach talk to frank.......
You will have a sick and twisted machine......
get rid or your egos....anybody who has built an engine at 2am would listen a fool aka an engineer......
