Fuck! You've got nearly all the ideas I'm doing on my new build. I'm going to have to go even more radical now! I reckon that back wheel would look sweet if you did either the rim or the spokes in black. What do you think? Nice fork covers aswell mate. Not too bling like normal. All round top bike mate - well done.

22-04-2008, 04:39 PM
Very nice. How big is that front tyre? I wouldn't want to pull a mono and headbutt those fork covers[xx(]

are the bars clipons or are they mounted to the front of the top triple clamp?

22-04-2008, 10:07 PM
Ahhhhhh...Mr Yantosh....

talented bugger isn't he!

the front is a fireblade rear, running a 180...go figure what the rear is!

Yan makes VERY trick stuff...I'm after some big fat yokes for my bikes...

sure he'll be along to tell you about the trick stuff...

but one thing you probaly haven't seen....is the amount of work he's done on the frame...lets just say...double gussett !!! Child bearing hips lol!!

and I think its getting a turbo as well

like I said...talented bugger is our Yantosh

rear wheel , an antera 4x4 wheel
the bars are 28mm stainless , made from about 10 bits of tube , internal throttle and one off grips , their wider than renthals but the yokes are a little larger than stock too i will now go picture whore and put a montage of its progress up

agree with gix regarding a black wheel

other than the fork covers and spikes i LOVE it
didnt even notice the wide front to start with, always the sign of a good build!

I guarantee after the first time you get caught out in the rain you'll be sorting a guard mate. I remember having to do about 10mph on my Z back in the early 90's when I didn't have a guard and it started raining. It somehow managed to go up in your helmet, down your collar and fucking everywhere, and not just water, black and muddy road shit.

Is it a daily rider or weekend/show bike mate?

output shaft nut spun off , loaded up the outrigger bearing , locked up the box , had the motor running since , off the road for this year , fit clip ons under top yoke , fit 1216 kit , fit turbo , stumpy the seat a bit , paint it

the top nut has a spike too , it'll make the involuntary turbo wheelies fun

Gix11
30-06-2008, 12:23 PM
Ha. Fucking mental. Love it. That tail will look better as well mate, it'll really show of the back end. What happened for you to realise it needed to be "More controllable"?

yantosh
02-07-2008, 04:26 AM
the front slapping over a bump , the front sliding into the kerb while pulling out of a junction , just a general feeling of uncontrolled danger , no feeling through bars .

the germans seem to manage , dunno if rake or trail is diff

You seem to have the same upholstery method as me mate. Nice. That tail looks sweet, glad you kept it shorter than the rear wheel length.

Razorback
14-07-2008, 07:21 PM
Awesome man... surely one of the nicest slabbies around. I really dont see anything I dont like.

I lmfao when I read as far as the turbo. Your a legend!

Engine specs please ?

dazz
14-07-2008, 09:15 PM
Love the thing.

Looking at the dyno vid....is the back wheel off centre?

yantosh
17-07-2008, 02:28 AM
back wheel is bang in line , the plastics weren't on right mate

engine specs , standard today , but will soon be 1260 low compression with busa pistons , heavy duty valve springs and cam chain , mtc lock up clutch, hsr45 carb , homemade wastegate , cometic head gasket , hybrid rayjay b flow turbo , home made (well at my work) engine cases, outrigger bearing ....think thats it

there will be 4 M8 cap screws on either side through the slot that comes off the hole , the hole is about 0.004" clear , tighten the screws and it clamps around the fork leg

Oh, how much can you tell me about making / getting made a plenum for my ZX12r? Its one of the last couple bits i need for buying the bits for my turbo-ninja kit, and i just didnt think about it until i saw yours.

Price for parts+labour etc? Injector rail / no injector rail?

Any advice would be tops,
