Alright guys I've been seeing at a lot of turbo bikes so tell me the good the bad and the ugly. Are they practical for everyday riding and commuting? Are they reliable enough to jump on and ride across the country? How is the fuel economy? How is the traction? Are you even able to ride one in the rain?

Are they practical for everyday riding and commuting?

Street kit for sure.

Are they reliable enough to jump on and ride across the country?

off corse.

How is the fuel economy?

Better than stock.

How is the traction

All in the wrist, your call

Are you even able to ride one in the rain?

I do. Not that I like it

Hey Romans is your bike lowered? If so both front and rear or just rear? How many inches?

Hey Romans is your bike lowered?

No, all is in place to lower but stock rear shock just collapses on hard launch. New shock should be here this week.

I was looking at those let me know how you like it. What are you doing about lowering the front just sliding the forks up?

Romans I just noticed progressive suspension offers a lowered shock is that what you bought?

10-4, that is the one. Price is to good to be true ??????

$400 is a real nice price

Do you know the spring rate?

Right now I'm running busa spring which works great for the street but I think it's a tad too stiff for the strip.

According to race tech site the stock busa spring is 14.5kg and the stock zx14 is 9.7kg

How did that shock work out?

All good thus far. Have not been able to street test but it's 3 times the shock I took off from what I can tell thus far. Lighter as well. Def what I needed. The from jumping on it bike now will compress and rebound at the same time. Not possible before.

Hi , just wondered if you had made any progress with the turbo project?

No sure what you mean, 8500 km last season. Zero this year. SB6 is now installed waiting for shifter.

Hi Romans, I actually meant Conneaut 14,,,,but Im sure you will be out soon!

I won't be adding turbo this season I think I'll buy parts and install next winter

Hi Romans have done doing the mods? :)

Hi Romans have done doing the mods? :)

Almost, all is installed, bike is now full auto, just need some time to do the test and tune. Fingers crossed.

Hey Romans have you got a chance to try out your new shock yet?

a chance to try out your new shock yet?

Briefly, Sweeeeeet thus far. Not going to beat it for the price. Hard = launch No. Playing with SB6 and Auto shift. Having air line issues so I will know more later.
