TTS Supercharger

Mighty impressive. What are you aiming for in the 1/4?

Ricky Gadson, a pro drag racer, did 10.56@126 on a stock bike. Stock bikes tend to put down 145 to the rear wheel.

Using a 1/4 mile calculator (which will be optimistic on et, and accurate on mph)
With 220 rwhp, which is what the supercharger kit gives without engine work, Ricky could get 9.32@145.

With 315 he'll get 8.27@163. realistically, that would require a drag slick and wheelie bar to get even close, so 9's for a mere mortal who weighs a lot more than Ricky sounds reasonable.

The Carpenter Silverback (240 hp) did 8.99. This thing has over 300 hp.

It’s not really a 1/4 mile bike but it should run 9’s comfortably if you can get a good 60’

What then? Bonneville? Tractor pull?

A sensible reply.

My supercharged Harley Breakout. With 250 Hp I did 9.6/142. Similar power/weight. But it was much easier to launch being low and long.

Old style Rocket is a long heavy bike with a lot of weight over a wider rear tire, wheelies not so much of a problem. Different animals.

I was hoping it would still be streetable with reasonable longevity.

I've always said that an Engine has 100 Rev ups in it, you know like a dam good thrashing. (Speaking from experiance here )
If you use them thar 100 Rev ups in a year, well that's how long your Engine is going to last.

But a half dozen or so a year and your going to last a few years.

Up to you.

That's a Steel cap Conrod below.

I think it's broken.

Naah, it's custom. Custom is very expensive, and it definitely looks expensive.

Actually, this is what you call "Art"
Now we all know that "Art" is very expensive.

This piece of "Art" was indeed very expensive
