Title: Re: S2r8hundo update Post by: Ohm3d on June 02, 2015, 09:17:17 AM gotta wrap the pipes still and need to do something with the clutch housing. I saw some nice clear cover conversions... a la Ducabike. otherwise, its pretty much as far as I can go without doing big valve heads and pistal pistons.

Title: Re: S2r8hundo update Post by: SpikeC on June 03, 2015, 10:48:16 AM It is looking very nice! However, in my mind pipe wrap would not enhance it, rather I would get them ceramic coated to match the finish on the rest of the bike.
Title: Re: S2r8hundo update Post by: oldndumb on June 03, 2015, 10:57:51 AM I had pipe wrap on for about a month or so and then needed to remove a section of it and was surprised to see the pipe condition. It was severely discolored and had surface pitting which matched the wrap weave. Luckily I was able to save the pipes with a whole lot of sanding and polishing. I now have polished pipes which are easy peasy to take care of.
Moral of story, if you do a pipe wrap, you can expect the pipes to look like crap if you ever remove the wrap. Title: Re: S2r8hundo update Post by: Blackout on June 03, 2015, 11:58:07 AM Pipes look great.

Title: Re: S2r8hundo update Post by: Ohm3d on June 10, 2015, 11:09:30 AM The reason I want to wrap the pipes is that is melts the heel of my boot. Tried a few options of putting a heat shield on and they all looked like cap.
The colour is a custom blend done by a local paint guy. Started off with Senna grey and added a lil magic. His work is top notch to say the least. That tank was originally a Tricolore tank, because I wanted to run the newer style of fuel pump. Exhaust is arrow header, custom mid-pipe, and custom cans. It was a Bellisimoto custom exhaust that didn't fit (turns out the measurements for S4Rs and S2R800 are Waaaaaaaay different) and required significant cutting and welding to work.

What did you do with the tuning? ECU flash or a piggyback? Title: Re: S2r8hundo update Post by: 2WheelsFTW on June 11, 2015, 10:42:58 AM That color combo is killer, reminds me of an S4R [thumbsup]
Title: Re: S2r8hundo update Post by: Ohm3d on June 11, 2015, 08:52:39 PM What did you do with the tuning? ECU flash or a piggyback? its got a DP ecu flash, and PC3, dyno tuned Title: Re: S2r8hundo update Post by: Ohm3d on June 12, 2015, 06:41:48 AM That color combo is killer, reminds me of an S4R [thumbsup] its actually very close. I priced it out and it probably would have been cheaper to just but an 07 S4R gret tank and tail. the exception is that the S4R has a black stripe on the tank and tail and that wasn't the look I was going for. |
