Even I get scared when there's a bike around me. You never know what they are going to do I just stay as far away from them as I can

all you can do is look over your shoulders when changing lanes and indicate more than a second before you do it man... i alsways check by looking over my shoulder, but still the odd bike does get lost... or comes out of f**king nowhere.

To open a can of worms, bicycle riders piss me off. I know they have a right for whatever f**ked up reason to be on the road, but then in peak hour to sit smack bang in the middle of the lane and not let cars pass. I have major urges to run them over

no youve done it....

incoming butthurt!

lol thats awesome pics??

After 4 years finished I finally got it down to my mates bike shop to get the frame powder coated. I will post pics when it's back if anyone is interested. It took 4 years to design and build too, many nights of discussion over bourbon cans... etc... The motor goes through the 9 gears so it's quite potent for it's engine size and only 25kg.

I used an 8 inch downhill rear end, 8 inch triple clamp forks and made the frame to suit out of chromo. Anyone that doesn't know what a downhill bike can do should google search, it is an indestructible dirt bike you can throw easily over a fence. 6 piston Ti Hope brakes can stand it on it's front wheel as I found out the hard way. No expense spared on this one.

Shame only tight arses want to buy motorised bikes... I only sold one down spec'd version. There is much more work out there for performance vehicles. :)

hope brakes are hopeless though.

i'd stick with the old school shitmano 4pots for better braking performance.

and i'd like to see this motorised pushy too.

They were the only floating disk brakes I could buy back then, and with a good sintered pad in them they are easily the best brakes I have ever used. Solid disks would warp in no time at that speed.

You are welcome to take it for a spin if you like. Break it you bought it. :P

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
