The only sad part....

ridable yet!

Demonstrating the GoldWing style of riding:



How to blink for a pictue:



And turbo parts!

its like christmas all over again everytime the UPS/FedEx guys come.

Wow... that thing really looks great. Very clean fighter conversion.

The undertail fairing looks VERY close to the tire in the pics from the side when you are riding... I assume it's just an optical illusion? The plastic is probably curved in the same direction as the tire?

[TimD]

Cool project. What kind of turbo is that? It looks like a Mitsu TDO5h housing, 14b, 13g, or 12a from a DSM or starion maybe? If it is thats a massive turbo for any bike!

I'm pretty sure that is why his ass was off the seat going over the speed bump.
Looks cool.

Love it man, looks great! Part of me really wants to turn an I4 SS into a street fighter. My SV will have to do for now

Interesting look with the goggle strap down like that. Is that how all the kids are wearing em these days?

[Nikon]

cause we can't read the 68870 on the plate in the first pic

Thanks.

And the undertail is concave. It doesn't even come close to touching.

You can see the concave here:


and here a little bit:



TimD: It's a td04h turbo. should be good for 220-250hp around 8-12 psi. Not sure what i'm going to be running yet. Researched it, and the stock block can take 280 reliably, and has been pushed to 340 w/ out a problem. yet, some have blown up completely stock!

Nikkon: SHHH!!! don't tell anyone! Because my bike deffinately isn't at the address my registration says.

Paul_E_D: umm... yea, i didnt even notice! haha. oops...

I think it helps pinch your nostrils off to safely ride by Dunkin Donuts and Ruby Tuesdays.

Looks Badass Dude. Nice job.

Good catch, I didn't spot the dunkin. I'm not generally lured by Ruby's so it didn't dawn on me...

[KillBill]

I just recognized that those pix
were taken on Amherst Street.

Bike looks awesome

[KillBill]

I don't know.....i have a photographic memory i guess

this sign tipped me off



they've been trying to sell that land for awhile now

[BostonSVkid]

Looks like the bike is squatting down to take a dump

[CEO]

Thanks.

I gotcha. Just an optical effect. Bike looks great.

Jesus Christ.

Great looking bike but what the hell happened to the tail? Did you get rear ended?

That's the "euro fighter" look IIRC.

Yeeeeeeah man. I can't wait.

I'm tired of power wheelies in first and second. Even though i only have 5 years....
i want all 5 power wheelie gears!

[Doc]

[schleppy]

Is that bad to say? I was always under the impression that the short, upturned tail came from the euro fighters.

[Doc]

I was poking fun... I knew what it was... it was a joke son!! Get it? Now Laugh damn it!

[BostonSVkid]

Dont mind him doc he is a bit slow

[Crash Dummy Denno]

does it wheelie?
