Actually, Devious has been work'n on some sorta supercharger design, and he's in the final stages and has been super busy with that project. I wished it was because he was super trick'n out my bike, but I just sent him stuff to powdercoat fer me, so it's not because of me.

Did he get his Shelby???

That would sure explain the break from motorcycles for a bit....................
no dfib, the dealer screwed him on their agreed price, and once the dealer got delivery he jacked the price up, way up! :mad:  He's work'n on tune'n his Lotus Elise now, said he's look'n to git close to 400hp!!! :eek:

HOWDY!

I have been chasin' my tail for the past few months, and just came up for air. I will try to catch up on all the new posts and be a regular here over the next week.

I have been working (investing), building engines (bike, car, boats), working on the final details for a new supercharger I am bringing to market in 2007 (modular design for bikes through big block V8's), and helping my brother build boats - www.rpmpowerboats.com (see the latest issue of Hot Boat magazine or the Feb issue of Powerboat magazine).

I spent the past few weekends on my flowbench/manometers and hope to get the 1050 Speed Triple head on it next weekend. My porting tools are sitting ready to go to work on it.

Racecomp - The final design is done, and the molds/castings are in the works.

CheapBastard - The coated parts look GREAT on the bike. Better than I imagined.

Dfib - The Shelby arrived, but the dealer got greedy and wanted ANOTHER $10K... I told him to get stuffed. So I bought a Lotus Elise and a spare engine that is apart, ported, and will be turbocharged and intercooled with Laminova air/water charge-cooler cores (and later supercharged as a test bed for a new supercharger design).

Av8tor - I completely agree. The Elise is stupid fun, and is quicker through the twisties than the Speed Triple - by a long shot.

and just so you all know, Devious did a stand-up job on the coated parts. ;D Many thanks Devious, I'm not gonna shame your workmanship by the crappy photos I posted on Trat, will git some better one's to post up. ;) One last thing, I apologize fer my impatience, Devious has been one busy feller, and was dicked around alot by the boyz in brown. He had to go thru quite a bit over the past couple of weeks to get me my parts, including replacing my brake lever that was damaged by UPS :mad: with his own lever. Just wanted to share that he is without a doubt, a stand-up feller. ;D
