Long time no post, sorry guys I've been preoccupied with work. Until last week that is, when i broke my foot and now I can't work. Sucks, but at least ive got more wrench time ;D The weather's been so nice I've been itching to ride, so I think I'm going to try and get her together and running...
The model # on it is VZ21. A direct knock off of an IHI RHB31 as far as i can tell identical specs.. actually thought i was buying the IHI when i ordered it, but i didn't read the fine print- what do you expect on the fleBay? The IHI RHB31 is made primarily for application in a japanese car, a...
I'm going to keep an eye on this bastard build!! I've got a kz650 four banger, which is the bastard son of z1. Kawi only made em for a few years while they were phazing out the 750twin and then they bumped the four cyl up to a 750.
Kind of the same boat as the cb650 when everyone only wants...
Yeah I'm doing a draw-through setup. The stock carbs are MIC 24s, so I figure one 44mm ought to breathe well enough for all of 'em. Picked up one on fleBay- it's off of some 3 cyclinder rotax snowmobile engine. Its a Mikuni vm series 44h, round slide. The engine its from was 2 stroke, but since...
Thanks for the technical knowledge! yeah its mostly for looks.
Also the exhaust system IS on the right side, those pictures are both backwards- a product of my high tech way of getting them out of my messages folder on my phone haha
Hahaha I'll keep that in mind. I might use the fire extinguisher as the pressure tank for the airhorn system intstead- then I could hit the spray handle to honk the horn!! hahaha either way I should work it in there that would be funny
I think that's about it as far as pictures and ideas at the moment. My phone sucks and converts all pic messages to slideshows so i cant put them on my computer, so the latest pics sent from my buddy's iphone look like crap. Probably because I used my computer's webcam to take a snapshot of my...
Got the creative juices flowing, messing around with using a spent fire extinguisher as a plenum for the intake manifold. Im thinking I can replace the extinguisher's gauge with a more accurate boost gauge that only goes up to a bar or 2 ;D I'll probly run less than a bar though, maybe 8 psi...
Think I'm going to go with a real shallow bench seat instead. Here's the bike with a seat pan I made, and a few pics of my favorite wrenchmonkees bike that I'll try an make my seat look somewhat like.
Spent most of the winter trying to get funds up- sold unneeded stock parts on eBay for a total of around $400. Not too shabby for a bike I paid $700 for. Stock junk paid for my turbo setup :P
Here's one look i was playing with, kind of cliche, but popular for a reason I guess. Love those cafe...
Some pics from over the winter as I started to cut off useless junk from the frame and chopped the seat area down short right behind the read clevis-overs.
HAHaha Yes!! Dieselpunk is the word I've been searching for- that's this bike to a T. That's an 18 wheeler fog lamp as a headlight, and here's a pic of my latest addition to project PeterBike- an AIRHORN!! that's right, I'm going to be that asshole
