Title: left for dead, drag race project
Post by: denmah on July 07, 2010, 10:44:01 PM
so i picked up this 2004 wrecked bike from a friend at a salvage yard...

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/busar1.jpg)

in the truck
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/busar2.jpg)

picked up a new frame from a board member!
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/07071003.jpg)

started throwing it all back together
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/2010-07-07194502.jpg)

made my own block offs quick
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/2010-07-07211819.jpg)
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/2010-07-07212844.jpg)

getting there quick, need some more parts yet for the front end, forks, and triples were bent too badly to reuse, sucks but ide rather drive strait down the track at 150+

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/2010-07-07232133.jpg)

RCC extensions on the way, lowering links, oil cooler block offs, and gunna nitpick from there!

Good luck to you, brother.

Do you know if the rider survived whatever accident trashed that Busa as badly as it did?

they said he did, broken arm, pretty lucky.

i just bought a front end from another member,

2 inch lowered forks, shaved caliper mounts on one side, and strait lower triple clamp and slide through adjustable upper clamp.

pretty excited!

Title: Re: left for dead, drag race project
Post by: denmah on July 14, 2010, 06:53:56 AM
only things left on my list are...

extend the rear brake line, and caliper support.

new chain

clutch lever

i need a windscreen yet

then throw in oil and coolant in the motor and fire it up.

my temp gauge seemed to be busted, or the sensor was bad, just pegs hot the minute you power on the cluster.

ill see what else comes up once its rideable

I've got a stock screen i can throw in with the front end for free if you want it?  Unless you're planning on getting a double bubble, in that case I have one of those but would want $25 for it.
Title: Re: left for dead, drag race project
Post by: BATTMAN on July 14, 2010, 03:24:18 PM
did the temp gauge read like that when you started the motor on the wrecked bike?  Check to make sure you have the temp sensor hooked up.

Hey I cracked that screen trying to get it in the box last night (I honestly barely flexed it), pretty rediculous...

I think I may have another one laying around, I'll try to find it and if I do I'll send it out seperately to ya.  Forks will go out on my lunch break here in a couple hours.

Also, if those pegs are broke on the rearsets, do the Buell Peg mod, cheap and makes it easer to get your legs up after a launch, plus its more comfortable, can't go wrong.

front end is all tighened down, all my hand controls and levers installed, picked up a stock clutch lever at the dealer and got that all sorted out, swapped on the single brake line for the left side only.

did a bit of tidy'ing up the wiring harness around the battery it was still a mess there.

gotta order a chain and sprockets for these extensions and grab a brake line while im at it.

i think i might have made the steering stem a little too tight.

Post by: denmah on July 31, 2010, 08:07:36 AM
 just ordered 16/43 gearing and a 150 link EK-ZZZ race chain

gearing according to a calculator should be like this...

1st   2nd  3rd   4th  5th   6th
70   95   120  143  161   176

Post by: denmah on August 09, 2010, 05:34:10 AM
gutted the thermostat, installed the 2 new sprockets, installed the clutch, speed sensor etc, bled the clutch, bled the front brakes, bled the rear brakes, and installed the chain, i need a chain riveter or i will just buy a clip in master link for the damn thing lol.

new sprockets
2 down 3 up

Post by: denmah on August 09, 2010, 05:34:27 AM
ok, couldnt sleep after working on coreys truck all night, got up, went to the garage...

used the 10 dollar harbor freight chain rivet tool, and it ****ing worked great, i would recommend it to anyone, you have to have some patience to get everything in the way you want, and then get it done. so after that i adjusted the chain. going to raise the back end of the bike a tiny bit on teh links, one or two more, till i can cut up the box on the back of the swingarm and etc.

filled the bike with water, installed the shift linkage rearset and bent back all the stock parts for the shift linkage and got it all working great actually hahha. re-ran all the wiring in the front end, used teh factory zip ties and etc. mounted the front end fuse box.  gutted the stock air box to the Big airbox mod. threw filter in the garbage, mounted the stock tank, connected all the fuel lines etc.

fitted the stock overflow tank, filled the front tire with air (it looses air somehow) im sure i did some other small things im forgetting...

i cut more of the ass end of the bike off so the tire doesn rub, fired it up and rode it up and down the driveway today, bike sounds awesome it feels great to ride it, i wanna get new pegs on it, and the front wheel sorted out. (leaky tire, or broken rim? bent rim?) then i gotta put new brake pads on the front they feel shitty, and remove the other rotor,

then i need to make a support bracket for the rear caliper

my dad is going to hammer the balls out of the tank in an effort to make it low profile for racing, and then we have to fix the front tabs so i can bolt it down.

i would love to race it this weekend.

Post by: denmah on September 01, 2010, 10:13:20 PM
ran into some interesting issues lately, a few days ago i plugged in my bikes map, and intake air and coolant temp sensor.

the other day when we moved the bike it stalled out.

 couldnt get it started, pulled plugs, black....

got new plugs the next day, bike rolled coal out the back and killed the plugs again....

one mistake was, i had the IAT and coolant temp sensor swapped, the other was, when i plugged the coolant temp sensor in right, teh gauge works now...

with the map sensor still plugged in the bike fouls out bad, vacuum applied or not, it just fuckin dies.

so, with the IAT and map sensor unplugged the bike runs like a dream, synched teh ITB's tonight, replaced the front brake pads, and installed a new switch for the ignition, wich i hate, and will be throwing out sadly... fawk, haha.

also removed the stock gas cap, ordered a screw on style, strait on its way from ebay.

Post by: denmah on October 04, 2010, 01:33:09 AM
last wednesday i dropped it off at my friends shop for him to do some aluminum welding form me, and to build a sidewinder style 4-1 exhaust so i have better ground clearance, we might even shave my pan and pickup 1inch.

should have it this week, and i want to race this weekend.

how do you think i will do on my first time out on it (i have decent experience racing a 636 that went 10.55 on motor 111rwhp) with the street tire thats on it, i hope it hooks up ok.

i was thinking about ripping it at a local dyno to check the Air fuels, and if they are close to OK just race it like that, otherwise ill buy that ECU flasher and tune it.

Title: Re: left for dead, drag race project
Post by: denmah on October 04, 2010, 10:02:05 AM
oh the rear brake will be fine, everything is functional now i just dont have the support bracket, my friend is relocating the ear so that will be fine then too.

i would be totally amazed with myself if i can go single digits first day out, depends on the amount of runs i get in also.

yep, everything haha.

it was easy for him, he hasnt even seen a pic of a sidewinder or anything for a bike, i just told him i wanted tuned equal length coming out the side of the motor for ground clearance.

then again, this is what he does for a living...

Im curious to see how that pipe does on a dyno.  Im sure it will make power...just wondering how the power curve will look.
Title: Re: left for dead, drag race project
Post by: denmah on October 09, 2010, 08:02:54 PM
the bike definately has some holes, my other bikes were lean all over, im assuming this is the same way stock, with all the breather mods, im sure that did not help it...

i just ordered my boost by smith tuning cable, and ill probably end up getting a wideband commander to do the data logging.

all the bike dynos in this area are not too keen on letting me do my own tuning, wich is a crock of shit.

ide rather tune it myself and have the logger and everything else and be able to check and tune whenever i want, and then just stop by and make a power pull sometime.

i like to tune by MPH at the track anyway haha.

bike feels really strong with the pipe, i did a 1st and 2nd gear rip, but i can feel the fuel holes in some places, and it died in after i chopped the throttle after a nice rolling burnout, so it was either way lean or rich when i chopped the throttle and clutch.

haha thats why i think ill be waiting a bit.

just ordered the ECU tuner.

still deciding on if i should order the wideband commander, or wait and see if i can find a decent dyno around here.

With your setup, you should be able to get by with a base map from Greg.  Look in the tuning section.  They have a threadd where they post free maps for the ecu editor.

i actually need an AP and IAP sensor...., anyone have them laying around willing to part with them? or know a good location to get them, ebay doesnt have them.

also wondering since i have the ECU tuner can i just install GM 1-2bar maps?

testing out the two step on the stock ecu

played with romraider today and setup my 2step at 3k fuel and ignition are turning off at 3100 and back on at 3000, so its pretty soft and no backfires.

not bad for a first test!

Post by: denmah on October 23, 2010, 09:29:21 PM
installed the dynojet wideband commander today, man i am in love with this product already.

ive got it to a pretty steady 14.x aft while revving, IAP map is doing great, i have to buy a switch at the store for the datalog wire, when you supply it with 12v it starts logging a session, then off it stops obviously, whats neat is when you do it again, it creates a new session, everytime, till teh 10 min of flash memory is full.

gunna try to get somewhere around where that has an empty stretch of road and rip in 3rd from like 2-10k and make a log, and get the WOT table in the 12.5 - 13.0 AFR range and then its ready for the track!

the wideband commander is so fucking rediculous, you can program it to control 2 outputs by TPS, RPM, and AFR as variables...

lets say, spray nitrous noids if throttle is above 75% and rpm is over 6000, and afr stays below 12.0

if the air fuel walks up, it will shut off, if you pedal it will shut off, etc etc,

all while doing this you can datalog 10 min to the internal flash memory.

also has a warning light and beeping alarm internally, you can set the variables for that, its actually loud as hell, im sure i will be able to hear it with my helmet on and pipe screaming because my head will be right next to the gauge.

fuckin awesome.

You can program the nitrous to spray at a set RPM and only above 85% throttle in the stock ECU. You can also use the ECU to kill the fuel during shifting to eliminate the need for an external kill box.

I think that bike in the other lane threw your timing off.  Not bad at all.  Just do alittle bit of fine tuning and some seat time and youll be running some good numbers.
Title: Re: left for dead, drag race project
Post by: denmah on November 03, 2010, 11:12:20 PM
just shaved the seat on the bike, took apart the stock seat, threw out all the foam, covered it in like 1/8th inch foam layer, and stapled the stock seat cover back on, its fuckin awesome

tightened up my suspension settings according to some tips a forum member sent me.

also i gotta meet up with you soon battman, i need some race bike parts haha

you can really see where how i said the 60ft totally surprised me.
to my surprise i actually yanked the tire at only 2000rpm there, and you can tell how i was barely on the gas because it yanked tire, and totally fell on its face till i opened the throttle hahah

surprised i still pulled that good of a 60ft...

bottom end grunt of the 1300!

Title: Re: left for dead, drag race project
Post by: BATTMAN on November 17, 2010, 10:24:53 AM
those springs should be fine if you use all 6 of them.  Most people use 3 65lb springs.  It should be just as good.

Post by: denmah on November 17, 2010, 11:07:57 AM
that is a better idea, i did that with my 636, staggered the heavy with the stock and it worked great.

that way if i need more strength i can throw more heavy springs in

Post by: BATTMAN on November 22, 2010, 11:40:10 AM
Im suprised you got a decent A/F reading with that ig gap in the airbox.  I wouldnt spray it until you get another airbox.  If the air to each cylinder is irregular, then you know that the nitrous to each cylinder will be irregular.  You could end up burning up a piston.

Post by: BATTMAN on November 22, 2010, 12:36:50 PM
Thats good.  It will also help that you are using a spider NO2 kit.  It has a direct route to the throttle bodies versus fogging the airbox.

so i got out to the track sunday, 9.72 @ 141 1.58 60ft

i sprayed 2 passes on the 30 shot and wow, spun 300ft the one pass and then the next one my buddy in the tower said i carried the front end past the 200 ft mark 6-8 inches, bike felt amazing.

still i spun so bad i went 10.3 @ 145 haha.

anyway, im going to get a better tire and head back out there, very pleased still with my low budget build

she is really making some power.

Title: Re: left for dead, drag race project
Post by: denmah on June 02, 2011, 10:58:23 AM
loaded her up on motor, and layed down 140hp, i was able to straiten the bike out and make another 11hp totaling 151on motor. the race gas actually made the bike richer than the pumpgas i was running.

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/IMAG0110.jpg)

ended up with a 13.2 AFR and 34deg of timing in the motor.

happy with that i moved on to the 30shot
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/IMAG0113.jpg)

i ended up using a 12.5-13.0 AFR and 32deg of timing to make 170 hp to the tire with a 24 nitrous jet in my dry bar.

tire was getting so boogery it was throwing rubber in the dyno bay, youll see on the video it hits me and the dude in the back of the head and arms haha

it was throwing chunks like this on the 60shot
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/IMAG0114.jpg)

same 12.5-13.0 afr wide open, a little fatter on the hit to be safe, and 30 deg of timing made 200.xx to the tire.

whats most amazing is my power curve holds power flat at 200hp from 9-11k on the dyno, pretty awesome for a 1200cc bike.

dyno pull on motor
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/busamotor.jpg)

dyno pull on 60shot (50rwhp, pretty good for a long bike with alot of chain)
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/busa60shot.jpg)

and the three pulls overlayed

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v479/denmah/busar/3busaruns.jpg)

ill get video up in a little gotta cut through it.

all in all i am extremely happy with picking up more power on motor when i was already trapping low 140mph range.
and the increase of 50hp is pretty retarded, going to take alot of getting used to, and a better tire.

the owner at JD Cycleworks (http://www.jdscycleworks.com) is an awesome guy, very knowledgeable and was the only tuner in the tristate area with a bike dyno that would let me tune my own god damned bike lol

bike sounds so amazing on nitrous that on motor it sounds like a turd haha.

I just put a Shinko hookup on mine today.  I had a 003 stealth on before the hookup.  Hookup digs better.  Try one.
