Whats The Scoop!!!!!!!?????????????
Whats the news on everyones winter builds? Mr. Hill, Entropy, Osti (secret mega monster), MM, AA and others?
I still have about 4 weeks to get my new weld-up crank back. Just received reconditioned rods, piston pins, and other small misc. parts. Special thanks to everyone on BikeLand that helped out with parts. Also need bearings and a couple gaskets, but that'll have to wait till the crank gets back.
Hope the new flywheel holds together this time as these builds are fun in all, but kind of put a little dent in the pocket book.

Just mounted my Carbon Fiber BST Wheels, nice.
Looking to go quickshifter, pc3 USB and ignition module and ditch the PC3R.
Sometime mid-season: 60 shot, valve springs/retainers, extra fuel pump and maybe a 2nd bottle aboard!

Glad to hear Buddy and Osti's bikes are ready to go, can't wait to see them run.
Shiphteey are you going to make it to Texas? them CF BST rims sure are nice! you might consider one of those fatty 5lb nitrous bottles like Mr. Hill has.
MM I know you have a ton of parts but if you need any stock stuff shoot me a PM, if I have it , its yours.
Bet Karl is up all night this weekend tinkering with his motor, if he's home.
Mr. Hill if you make it out to Texas I'll be springing for your lunch!

If you stop buying "Other People" LUNCH in the Big City, you would have a LOT more Money for "YOUR" Bike!
WHEN I get my Rag to Cooperate and I can follow the Check List I plan to "PAINT" on the Bike (So I will not lose or forget it and run the Number It is "Supposed" to run according to me, then you may see me a LOT of places

My plans are much less exciting..
I want to get rid of as much parasitic drag as possible. Perfect chain alignment, different wheel bearings(?), and anything else I find / think of. Prob do the 'ol crankcase mod too. I was thinking of drilling out my stock muffler, just for shits. I also have a set of stock replacement Muzzy velocity stacks, may as well be on the bike. They don't sit right on my '02, and neither the '00, but screw it. a bit crooked is still a smoother intake than those s-shaped stock rubbers.

Karl made his yearly holiday trip down to Mexico with the family, but before he left....he was spending alot of time measuring (and remeasuring) shit bigtime. He also got that engine stand modified and working pretty well.
I got rid of my stock signals (Greggs) and installled the pipe. That's probably all I'll do for now. Need a bottle warmer and pressure gauge though for sure.

WideOut if you need to borrow a 2.5 lb bottle I have a couple of spare ones.
I always have a little spare pocket change for lunch so no worries.

I gave my wife (:wink) a digital camera so when this one goes together i might take some pix. However, it's a "vanilla" build so then again, maybe i won't take any pix
I don't have any cool drama like VH 
Gary;
good to see yr parts n' stuff coming together!

I recently purchased an '04 ZX-12R with only 420 miles on it. I am doing the usual bolt-on mods: Pipe, power commander, rearsets, air filters, brake lines, flush mount turn signals, etc. Next up is some dyno tuning.

Karl,
I'm still not over missing the October meet yet, somehow the best laid plans fall through.
I haven't even checked the schedule for Maxton and Texas yet. I gotta make plans around my new job with Kawasaki and Bike Week will be in March of course.
I sure would like to make the Texas meet this year but I have to crack 190 on my bagger at Maxton first!
If I can get my project bike up and going I'd like to run it too.

Thanks guys.....
Karl,
Like I stated earlier, Dean is my hero. I pester him quite a bit and pick his brain when possible 'cause this turbo stuff is new to me. I'm finding out if an old dog can indeed be taught new tricks!
Vincent,
The fork protectors are stock, doesn't yours have them?
TRN,
The headers and dump pipe is ceramic coated but since this picture I have done away with the internal wastegate and am in the process of mounting an external Turbonetics wastegate. I've got both pipes now fabbed up using pvc, now gotta move on to either stainless or TI.
Dan
