PROJECT TURBO BUSA IS NOW A GO

exiles had to dismantle his garage
due to a local coucil rennovating them in nov
he planned to leave one bike with steve and one with me whilst the work was carried out
guess what it dident happen
apparetly will happen sometime in jan with the current weather and the fact that hes been spending the last week or so digging people out of the snow he just aint bothered to sort it
knowing exile he will get his finger out after xmas he just cant stop tinkering for any leanth of time all hes got left to do if i remember right is rewire the blade


;);)

some updates
managed to get some time in the garage
and started putting things together

frame back on

do you have drainage from your gauge set in the tank, those eboost are great but expensive and not very waterproof
