YES looks like Carpenter will be running a turbo streetbike at the asphalt tracks in the near future at the request of TRIUMPH the small 1480cc streamliner engines are making 565 RWHP a piece so the 2300cc version will be even stronger and will provide all the power needed for a worldbeating street MONSTERHi
I rekon I have spent in total (including initial bike purchase £7.500) around £17.000 but to be honest if I sat down and went through the bills I would not be suprised if it was a bit more!
Suprising how quickly the smaller bits add up,traction fluid for the supercharger was £99.0 a litre! And as most of you know Triumph parts are not cheap. £1,500 for new head ouch !
Rekon it was money well spent tho as I now have a bike I know is mechanicaly sound ,accelerates like a Rocket,handle's far better than standard,stops a lot better and has a gearbox /transmission far better than my BMW 1600GTSE and its my baby.
Happy Rocket riding new year everyone
