sl falco turbo
Re: sl falco turbo
Here are some pics of my turbo project which is nearly finished. Just ironing out some little issues before I take it to OTC for maping. main problem has been oil syphoning from the oil cooler back to the turbo cos it's a lot higher. This caused it to spit fresh oil from the exhaust on every start up. A simple relief valve which holds back 2 psi on the oil feed should sort that.couldn't work out how to post all pics in one go .

Wow! Going to be a bit of a beast. Going for the sleeper look or all out 'look at it'.
How's it effected your insurance?

Re: sl falco turbo
Yeah should be an awesome ride. The falco is a semi naked bike away but I think it looks better with a bellypan which will help to keep shit off the turbo. Insurance isn't a lot more. I havnt told them yet but my r1 turbo was about 550 a year full comp. This is what it was like Pre turbo.
Re: sl falco turbo
Making some good progress with the falco now. Just getting all the tiny details sorted before it goes to OTC for mapping cos Pete closes the shop and fucks off to the tt for 3 weeks.
set the tps cos it was out.
upload a home made map to the power commander so I can ride it to the mot
adjust the carb sync screws to factory setting.
set fuel pressure.
I wanted to start it up this evening to get it idling smoothly but it's a bit late and it is very loud. Got a problem with a neighbour who works nights. Can't run it in the day cos it wakes him up and can't run it in the evening cos it wakes his kids up. He is a real moaner. I can't win

Re: sl falco turbo
Yeah woody I could do your but this one's took me nearly fuckin years.
with work and the kids and wife I only get a couple of hours a week to work on it. When they did your big bore do they raise the compression.
