So, I went ahead and ruined the Turbo Busa.

[luvmylegend]

I tried to ride it the other day on high boost. 21 psi, making around 345 HP on a +4 extended stock style arm.

Fuck. That.

All it does is spin and when and if it grabs, it tries to throw me off of it

So here's a +12 DME arm, drag tire, revalved shock, and a 11,500 pound tensile strength EK drag chain (I put that on like 20 minutes ago, it's a Bluetooth chain in the pics).

If it ever stops raining, I could go test it out.

I fixed the seepy oil line on the scavenge pump, installed a cleanable oil filter, fresh oil. None of the local tracks are open yet to get some times, and Rockingham is redoing their first 800' so I won't be able to get a 1/4 mile time until March. Hoping for 4.9's @ 150 in the 1/8 mile

Time to junk it

On stock tokico clappers. Nice.

Yup, and no rear brake.

It's straining my soul not to remove one of the front calipers and rotor, but I don't need to lose any weight up front

Who could have possibly foreseen this?

 

[Alias]

Yup, and no rear brake.

why

 

[wizurd]

Would this be a good first bike for my kid

Kinda low hp numbers tbh

 

[luvmylegend]

Who could have possibly foreseen this?

We don't do stock Busa's 'round here. My son's nitrous bike

 

[Janson]

a bike w/ nearly 350hp has trouble w/ traction!? Why I never!?

 

[victor77]

Depends on how much you like your kid.

These are not the actions of a man who is of sound mind. Go get the help you need.

 

[luvmylegend]

why

It doesn't do shit but drag. I never use it at the track. Seriously, one single front brake stops a bike from 200, no problem. Grudge bikes hitting 235 on a single brake. We have long shut downs on most of these tracks

Some events require it, I have to take off like 5mm off the bracket and refit, but I'll push the caliper in all the way, so the pads don't drag

I drive a bitch ass Honda Odyssey minivan all week for work. I need something on the weekends that doesn't suck.

 

[wait*what]

no busamobile no care

 

[BStork]

Well that sounds terrifying.

 

[luvmylegend]

no busamobile no care

I kinda need that.

I have a whole separate Turbo Busa project that I'm just sitting on. Trying to figure out something else to do with it. We have a ridiculous amount of bikes right now. I was thinking a small side by side.

 

[luvmylegend]

Fast fast

 

[luvmylegend]

Dave page doesn't lose very often. These bikes are around 750-800hp

 

[DeezNortz]

you must have a gigantic testicle sack.

 

[LancerV]

Can i be on your life insurance policy?

 

[Dr. Charisma]

NEVER IN MY LIFE
