What Did You Do To Your Busa, Today?

[michael parris heuberger]

For what you’re wanting to do, hate to say but you don’t need nitrous to spoil the turbo. It’ll make way more power than you can use. If you are running the latest RCC intercooler and have a chiller tank, you probably won’t need the co2 either.

What’s fairings are you running?

Hi. I am using a Catilist carbon fiber reinforced with fiberglass it is a Gen 1 3/4 upper with there 1/4 lower and there tail which is a Gen 2 and is 12 over. I also have another Gen 2 which is 6 over I will use this one when I ride with my girl. The swingarm is 6 to 12 over. The Garrett is the G42-1200c it is a very big turbo and I will have 20 front and 36 rear gearing. So I think that the turbo will need some help to spin up. When I run VP M1 Ithink that it will not need the cooling. When I run VP C16 for the 1 1/2 mile run I think it will help. I am not going to run to run the chiller tank.

Went riding with the lads today , had a bit of a run with the Gen 3 which was fun .

It’s interesting to see what appears to be a different brand front tire on each bike. Have you had a chance to ride that big Triumph?

Today i opened the garage door, checked the Busa was ok. Then closed the garage door and went back in doors and had a cup of tea. To much salt on our roads to even think about going out on the bikes. I think it will be May time before we ride again. My joints don't like the cold.

Might be a little long and with that power it’ll spin a lot IMO. The new twin scroll setup with the RCC header should be fine with proper boost control. Why aren’t you running the chiller?

I am sending better pictures of my clean and asleep Hayabusa

Hi. That is why I want to run the nitrous and co2. We are adding 40 to 50 lbs to the arm and I have raised the swingarm pivot 12 mm. It also has a 1 inch positive offset triple tree.

Well my thing is now such a composed predictable weapon on my favorite section of road ,that it may not be too fair... , even tho I physically outweigh my mate by a good 100 pounds . Even still , tho my mate was v quick in some sections of the ride , and despite his rolling roadblock approach to corner entry , I was always snapping at his heals , and first chance my trusty L2 hauled my fat arse past and clear , my stock midrange combined with 47t gearing is always going to keep others honest .
We didn't swap this day , I ran out of time and had to branch off to home and leave my mates to enjoy the rest of the day and more riding fun .

Once the borders open up and it's clear without any political bullshit,i'll ride the LE down and we'll go for some rides.

Can't beat a well equipped Gen 2.

Well I honestly expected to hear that the 3rd gen didn't stand a chance but good to know it actually made it interesting . I'm definitely waiting to hear your thoughts on the gen 3 when u get a chance to swap bikes.

Took it to a track for some fun..

How long did it take for your heat gun to raise those blisters?

Many hours. Lol..

@ottafish Once when I went to the track and blistered up the tires, I then rode the bike to the shop to put on some new rubber. The tech looks at the tires and with wide eyes asks "you did that on the street?" Haha So of course I just said matter of factly "yeah, they aren't as bad as usual" That dude's eyes were as big as ping pong balls. I told him "be careful taking her back, she bites and can smell fear". The guy behind the desk almost spit his coffee (I had already told him I went to the track).

 

[PeregrineKeith]

Well yesterday but changed the oil on the Busa
Also the VTX got jetted, air box mod and new plugs
