rather than hijack the 'Don Benosee' thread I thought I would start another one as there has been some interest in the bike...
I purchased the bike from a bloke in perth, it was fitted with a 'stage 1' supercharger kit.
basically a stock motor with a rotrex supercharger and ecu remap to suit.
Bike had 242 rwhp when i purchased it.
After talking to richard from TTS in silverstone, i decided to upgrade to the stage 3 kit.
Just got it back this morning after the upgrade.
Mods: JE racing pistons, custom cams, inter cooler/radiator (all part of the stage 3 upgrade)
: adjustable cam sprockets, EFM Auto clutch.
motor was carefully assembled with proper ring end gaps etc. and cams dialled in.
The blue silicone hoses are temporary to run it in, the bottom one is not the right angle and is restricting airflow....
When it is run in I will fit the pingel auto shift kit and Dyno tune it.
The auto clutch takes a bit of getting used to....
Expecting around 400 rwhp.
Bike has power everywhere, no lag and you can still tootle around at 40kmh in top gear and the bike will pull away cleanly, just like a stock one.
For the non bikers, the bike is a 2300cc triple - or 140 cubic inches for those that only speak Harley....

Awesome - I've just been watching some Rocket vids on youtube.
I just have to ask why? Obviously you have lots of straight roads because where I live i can't see that thing going around corners!

I thought my T595 daytona was a rocket but that would really live up to its name.
Awesome....it might give my son ideas, so I won't show him....
My SS will have to do, its fast enough for me...I haven't been on two wheels for many a year.
The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.
nice toy !!!.
i keep thinking about pulling my old toy out but i don't know if i can handle it anymore.
Nice toy, I'm curious, how much does it weigh?
Cheers, Tiny

probably around 280 - 290 kg, a bit lighter than stock.
+ 110kg with me on it....

Nice Toy! Is it anything like early British Bikes where their bikes reflected their weather, i.e. leaks all the time?

Sorry to dredge up this old thread, however I thought of you as soon as I started watching it & I'm sure you will get a laugh from this hoe.
