NOS: 75 HP: $500 approx..

Total kit price

One Miiiiiillion dollars. MwuuHAhahahahah! [Dr. Evil voice] :D


That would depend on what you want/need.

Nitrous bottle size, output/fuel system requirements, simple on/off or progressive controller, future needs for upgrade, NANO "pusher" system, etc.

Contact me with your requirements, and I can put together pricing and labor.
HOW BOUT a price for a 120hp setup installed drive in drive out dynotuned ready to race designed as you would for your own bike
 
just out of curiosity Wayne,
and mainly for Arts benefit,
How much HP would YOU figure a man would loose
by running a Riken Rapter 225 car tire VS. a stock metz?

Ever dynoed a rocket with a stock tire
then ran the same bike with a car tire for a comparison?

Or any other bike for that matter?? And how much HP and TQ was lost?
 
Depends how power is measured, weight gain, and compound softness.
An inertia dyno or a eddy-current performing a sweep test, will show more loss than a step test.

I have only tested ONE car tire on an R3 - step test. It was down on power but not as much as I would have figured. 200mm tire, so the weight gain is not as much as from a 225 or 245. I did not perform back-to-back tests with it compared to a stock tire.

Drag tires (soft slicks and semi-slicks)- especially the Shinkos - will show 6-10 hp loss on a strong 'Busa, even at 42 psi inflation pressure. I regularly see the Shinko 003 Stealth rob 8-10 hp in A-B testing against most street tires like the Pilot Powers, and the new Shinko "hook up" is even worse. BTW, the Michelin Pilot Power Pure hooks up very well, and the power loss is much less.

Road race tires normally show 2-4hp loss.
 
Wayne does running the car tire under inflated so it flexes a bit more in the cures have any different effect on the amount of horse power loss? Just curious!
 
You guys are totally insane, but I really love it. I have some plans for my new roadster, but wholly ****.............. Get that HP, again I love it. Keep up the good work. Hell I'm just learning to hang onto this bike, coming off my 80+ RWHP Bonnie.lol
I just hope I don't let you guys get me to the "Dark Side" with this bike.
Later and makes great reading. Keep it up.

GOOD INFO WAYNE AS IVE said youll be surprized to see the HP losses associated with running oversized and different compound and different design tires and especially heavy oversized CAR TIRES run at low 27psi pressure :eek:
 
winter project NOS

Thanks Wayne for the nitrous info..That is my project for this coming winter..I try to ride, not to work on my bike in the short minnesota summers. I will contact you this fall and have you design a kit for me..Plus I have to buy tires again (front and Rear)..never had a bike wear out tires like the rocket just cruisin before.. Appreciate the positive info you gave me instead of the constant negatives by imfattoo...Thanks again
