GS 1150 TURBO BIKE

[Brett rahn]

HERE IS A REAL NICE TURBO GS 1150 GIVE ME THOUGHTS ON THIS BRETT

[dragracer]

Very clean set up.

What size motor?????? How much boost are you running with that small tire????

[Brett rahn]

Motor is 1428 16 psi boost made 286 rwhp at Paul Gast this bike has all the goodies want to ride it??

[crystalline]

i cant believe that this has not sold

[Brett rahn]

tell me about it, what is up, I trully thought this would go quickly, I have even lowered the price, I guess guys do not want a awesome bike, But the economy has hurt us all, pass it on if you would thanks Brett

[Bub]

Been trying all day to come up with a way to get the money to buy it, even thought of hiring my wife out as a maid. But then I realized she doesnt clean lol. Very clean bike.

[Brett rahn]

WOW, are you the guys that came up and looked at it, theye were from your area

[Bub]

Wasnt me, if it was I would of found a way to buy it. Thats why im not allowed to have a credit card or bank card. Do you know what area exactly they were from? I will get the word out on it though.

[Brett rahn]

Out there some where, Yeah please at $8500.00 I am losing my ass,

[Bub]

I am sure you are, I built a 1428 kz motor a couple years ago. I know what it cost! And I dont even run a turbo.

Ok I don't want to sound like an idiot but why doesn't it make more power at 16 lbs of boost? I dont know alot about the older motors but I know with my motor is makes over 300 with 16 lbs of boost and its only 998cc?

What size is the turbo? How reliable would this motor be with more power?

[Brett rahn]

Turbo kit alone was over 4500.00 then motor with all the goodies is over 6500, then you add all the stuff in chassis and all electronics, i can not for the life of me think why this is not moving, Maybe price to low scared everyone off like to good to be true stuff help if you can

This is a much older design, like prostock tons of work needs to go in to be as efficent as a new gen motor, But make no bones Turbo is capable of 30 psi at well over 375 hp, on a draw thru carb system, plus motor is only 8.5 compression, with means it makes about 90 hp, all is relative but you get the point

[redline65]

Oh I understand. I figured that big of a motor made alot more power without boost. Just the older design is not as efficient. What does it run? Looks like a fun bike to ride. Is is pretty reliable?

[Brett rahn]

The way that it is set up now from Paul Gast it should go high 7s and could go faster and be very reliable, again all new stuff, it is strickly a track bike and A forum guy here Tom saw it at island dragway, and he was impressed, just i am out of Money and has to go
