Les,

This build looks amazing. I love how clean/refined the looks of your bikes are. VERY nice work.

Devin

Looks good Les! Hit me up when you get to town so we can met up

Sure will Mike, I finally found a ceramic coater that can give me a quick turnaround on the pipes. I seem to be on the "hurry up" side of things lately. Finish the top end and test fire with carbs this weekend then knock out a couple jobs. We should be on schedule!

Les

damn les i bet i see your income tax lol. jk. what size wastegate is that? tial brand right?

Wholly Crap Les.... Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!

Now get a better camera for us picture whore images....

No tax check for me, I usually end up cutting them an check.
As for better camera, I want one but dang, they be pricy!
I'll have some better pics when it gets together for the last time and fired.
All cats out of the bag,
1260 motor with 9.00-1 comp, purpose ported head with 38 in, 31 ex, gpz cams, GT25 Garrett turbo purpose built for this motor, Mr Turbo prepped 42 Mukuni carb, Atp intake. I'm not looking for stupid power, just crazy fun power. It might bust 200 hp but I'm only going with 8# boost right now for Daytona bike week.
Wastegate is a "Precision turbo 39mm"

Les

This is a test to see if I can get a video to load from photobucket.

Les

Okay, it worked! FYI, the sound quit when I burped the throttle. FYI it is crisp but that was last spring when it was pretty fresh.

Les

nice

Okay, we are test fired with the carbs I ran before and the pipe. Still no word on my ceramic coating on the turbo exhaust

Les

Too cool cant wait to here it either way lol

Okay, still no turbo exhaust piping. Rode a couple hundred miles around Daytona and motor seemed to seal up pretty good.

Les

Time for the GarageMahal
I know a builder with the proper technical skills
Im sure the next build to be completed will be a winner as well

As and when deciding to offer something for sale, it would be appropriate to use the "Classifieds For Sale" forum, where it's permissible within site rules to solicit a consumer-to-consumer sales transaction.

Good Fortune!

Wholly! GT25 and 39mm wg are some big items for a bike! I'm guessing the wheels are on the smaller side, do you know the detailed specs? 200hp wont be a problem for that turbo.

Basically, the turbo ended up pretty close to one turbo off the Nissan 300ZX twin turbo cars. OH, it might bust 200. This whole project has been silly, went to assemble the 1260, BAD sleeve again! Same one as before and same place. I really think the wrong sleeve got replaced but you can't tell which one if any got replaced. Bad call on my part sending it out to a person I knew was going under but, hey, I felt bad for him. Now I know why.
Now the motor is 1075 with MTC turbo pistons, ALL NEW! 84 GPZ1100 cams, cavanaugh ported 1000 head with 31 exh. and 38 intakes. Inverted buckets, 1000 crank indexed and welded, 1000 trans prepped by schnitz racing, MK11 cases with APE studs and nuts top and bottom, Mr. Turbo prepped hrs42 flatside.

Les

that should make a nice engine.

keep us posted,

Oh what a hectic life we live! I haven't been able to get in touch with some people here due to major time restraints and we are playing catch up right now. We are listing our home so we have been boxing and storing like crazy to prepare for it. In doing so I came across some things I had forgotten I had so I got a hold of one of my best friends that knows more about these old Kaws than I'll ever know. Ended up buying him totally out, Bought his last Z1 and a piece of sentimental history from over 30 years ago. Having purchased a new camera, I thought it was a good time to take a minute to play.
Tank from old Double Vision bike built in 1979/1980. Took 3 Z1R tanks to make.



I've been asked to post closeups of the paint on my bike to show the crispness of the lines and just how much metallic is in it.
