“Bussassin” -like that...:thumbsup:

Hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Years! So is there a Gen 3 coming out in 2019? What have you guys heard?

Does anybody know of any documentation or video that explains the mechanical differences between the Gen1 and Gen2? I would really like to know the differences in mechanics, upgrades and build quality between the two generations. I have to imagine that in the long run the Gen2 must be better...

Is there any issue with taking a turbo bike cross country and riding to a higher pressure altitude (over the Rockies) vs. a non turbo?

When tuning a Gen 2 bike with turbo how do you prevent auto ignition? I understand that a spacer or a different method will reduce compression ratio and prevent auto ignition if you want a higher psi. But, how do you know what psi to adjust the turbo to after compression is reduced? Math...

Guys, I totally agree. I really like the idea of finding a sound used bike and putting a little more money into it to make an iconic bike even more unique. Not that I wouldn’t like to bring a bike to TX or NY but can anyone recommend a tune shop in Milwaukee or Chicago. I live in SE...

Exactly. It’s all about one step at a time. The first step is the learning. When the bike has a turbo kit finally installed. It sounds like special equipment and more importantly special experience is required to properly tune the engine. Or can one adjust and test-ride and repeat? Where...

After a turbo is installed how is the engine and turbo tuned? What parameters are tested and adjusted? And how? Thanks

-Thanks Frank Speaking of different types of turbo kits. What are the advantages of a kit that requires “going in” to the engine? Or What is difference of the build quality between bolt on / into eng. What are the are the performance differences between the two types? I would be fine with...

More or less I am on a fact finding mission. The final result being a turbo. I really like to know all the facts before I commit to a bike (Gen 1/2) I am very much fixed on the Busa because of the community around the bike, the styling etc. -I gave the wrong impression earlier (showing off...

Additions: Can you give me some of hard limitations of keeping the bike on the standard swing arm. I want to keep the bike looking mostly stock. Except for showing off the turbo equipment... I would consider lowering the bike for performance considerations and for easier handeling for me...

Hahaha! “Help me help you” Prefect questions. How much horse power: I can’t come up with a number specifically. But I will say it has to be enough to be manageable for the street. Street or Track: Street. Bolt-on or into engine: I am OK with either. With a couple exceptions. I have...

Brand new to the forum... Thank you in advance for the help and information. I am looking for info on the advantage or disadvantage of building a turbo on a Gen 1 or Gen 2 bike. Excluding the cost of a newer Gen 2 bike are there any major considerations when choosing between a Gen 1 or Gen 2...
