wow BT, Sato rearsets... that's some $$!

Done a stack of research on what it takes lately to get 200+ and hit high eights with motor, with Nos, and with boost.
Leaving setup completely aside, cuz we can change that at anytime, and just speaking power, if yer gonna hit 200 on an all motor bike yer gonna need a really strong 1397 prolly around 220hp+.....add the bottle and you'll be gauranteed...shouldn't really need it though!!
It's possible to do it with around 200hp if yer a little dude, but not when yer our size...... 250+ lbs.
You or I are gonna need a little extra oomph to get there.
I've decided on a turbo, cus once ya break every penny down it's actually not alot different.
A ghetto kit with a tial gate is gonna set ya back about 4k.
A 220+ motor is gonna set ya back only a little less depending on who builds and tunes.
You should talk to JC and see what he'll charge!!
I figure I should see in the neighbourhood of 210+- with a 280hp ghetto, and hopefully see 8.99 if I can ride the damn thing.....that ones gonna be tough!!!
Hard to build for both worlds though.
IMHO......ultimate for drag would be big all motor/NOS....ultimate for the big end would be turbo....call it and go with it dude!!
I'm callin ghetto for my purpose, the only question I have, which can't even be answered for sure is which will last longer??

Well, one reason I'm thinkin' all motor, or motor & spray is that I'll only use the spray in high gear and only on 200mph attempts. Given that, I'll only have the added wear and tear of a power adder when I'm sprayin' (a few seconds per run) as opposed to all the time runnin' a turbo. I'm thinkin' that in reality I won't really have too many opportunities to try for 200 so it'd be rare that I actually sprayed 'er... I'm thinkin' a properly tuned and lightly sprayed big cc motor would last me longer than a turbo motor.

I'd like to see around 210-215 rwhp out of a streetable motor combo and no more than maybe a 30 or 40 hit of spray in reserve in case I need it to bump 200 verified. Should be fun at the drag strip on occasion as well.

Definitely keep us posted. I am just jealous becasue I wnat a twistie bike too but had to get back into Flat track racing a Quad heres a pic if you want to see it.

Nice quad! Wish I had one of those to play on... and a place to play with it!

wow BT, Sato rearsets... that's some $$!

I found 'em for $415 shipped to my door. That's not too much more than the other brands that I liked.

Nice pics BT, I might have to look for me a second job,,,,,,,,I have been on the fence about building all motor with a shot or just getting the Stage two. Either way I go I will have to wait till I arrive back stateside because I will need a good tuner with any direction I go. For now I will get the chassis, shifter, wheels, and any other little bolt-ons I can do myself. Then dig into the motor

you got the right idea about having a twistie ride and a rocket for the 1/4 mile. OK OK I'm now jealous

The bracket eliminator looks great, BT. I know 'Da Demon has some gold accents to set off, but do you want that much more gold. You were heading down that stealth look with the can and removal of the decals, but it seems you are deviating now. Maybe just the gold levers and black rearsets? Anyway, just a thought. Can't wait to see one of the 2 bikes at the Gap and I may have a surprise or 2 for 'ya!

Yeah, I've decided to pass on a really nice cage and have two nice bikes and just a decent cage. I'm really not into cages anymore. I'd much rather have two awesome bikes than one nice bike and one nice cage (with a bigger payment than a second bike would be, no less...). I'll get far more enjoyment out of two purpose built bikes.

The 10 will be my twisty rider and maybe get put on the track (roadrace type track) for a couple of track days, and the busa will be my drag, hopefully 200 mph'er, and two up/cruisin' ride.

Thanks, bro.

Maybe you have a point on the rearsets. I've got time to decide though. It'll be after the first of the year before I spend anymore on 'er... unless I go ahead and get a set of Powers. That's prolly my next purchase. I just don't trust the D218's... They're hard tires and I've never trusted hard tires on anything. I like 'em soft and sticky...

 

[BulletTrain]

Looks good BT.

Thanks.

 

[BulletTrain]

looks good.

Thank you j.

 

[BigBSBusa]

I like 'em soft and sticky...

Me too!

Just looked more closely at the rearsets.....they'd look perfect on yer 10 Train.......do it!!!
Yer goin with black levers right??

 

[bacharles]

Is it just me, or did someone say something like... "The ZX10 will stay basically stock except for a pipe?

"

Anywho, I like seeing how you set it up. Love the pics and enjoy seeing you enjoy it. I'm like you BT in the sense that I've got some money to buy a second Busa. I was all pumped up and ready for the '02 SE, but now that I've seen that gunmetal grey '05 LE, I get a hard-on everytime I think of one. I'll start saving up and working a little extra overtime around the first of the year. Looking into buying a new truck sometime in the next couple weeks. Not trying to hijack your thread, but if you've ever seen the 2005 Chevy Avalanche with the "Southern Comfort" custom package on it, you'd know why I'm feenin' right now. Sometime I feel like a crack addict that's been in rehab for only 24hrs...

Oh yeah BT. Not that you need it, but you've definitely got my blessings

on the Sato rearsets.

 

[BulletTrain]

talking about the rearsets !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I need to "learn how to ride" before I put on better rearsets?

You really have no idea how well I can ride, do you? That's the part I'm talkin' about when I ask what the fug yer talkin' about... As far as I know we've never rode together. Just wondered how you came to the conclusion that I need to learn to ride.
