So a few years ago I traded a t500 for this 87 z31. It was originally a 2+2 factory turbo automatic. Swapped in a manual transmission and drove it for a year but decided it needs a little more boost than the factory snail can provide. Basically, full EFI system replacement, bigger turbo, engine...

Started working on this bike about 4-5 yers ago, on and off. Several other projects took priority in between and now that they are either functioning, or gone, or both, it’s time to get back to it. I’m all for trying to keep the good ones more or less original, but this thing sat in my barn...

So now that the rattle-can racer is pretty much taken care of (for now anyways) I figured i would get started on rejuvenating this sucker. It looks half decent, but don’t let that fool you. Everything i’ve touched on it was hand tightened only, and the frame looks to have been repainted, as...

So this is hopefully going to be completed by easter, or not so long after. Wanted to buy a few T500 parts, but the fellow made me a deal for everything so he could clear out some space. The idea here is a quick finish, fun little track days bike. Not trying to make it race legal, just...

Here is a dropbox link to a C++ file and a small windows exe program. Program takes as input: initial fork length wheelbase offset front and rear wheel diameters castor angle from the original bike. the new wheel sizes new fork length and offset it then gives you the new castor angle...

do you love bacon? do you have a significant lack of bacon in your fridge? well folks i have your solution. I have a barn full of tasty pigs and a garage that has nowhere near enough bikes in it. if you would like to trade a couple pigs for a bike, then this is your ticket.

So i last year i got a little bored and decided that i needed something to distract me in my free time and after a little searching and 400 bucks, voila a little cb400 of my very own. Almost as if on queue my free time suddenly disappeared and now here we are, almost a year later with nothing...

So basically i have a nice old 72 Suzuki t500 that I've striped down to the bare frame and primed. i have all the parts to rebuild it, but the frame and electrical sat in our barn for the last 30 years at least, and the engine in my grandparents basement for the same time. while i could probably...
