OMG TRIBAL. Do you have a flux capacitor? are we back in 1999?  ;D


You know what helmet that would go with. the RF-1000 with the tribal designs. lol looks nice though. Did you do it yourself? these are airbrush graphics right? not vinyl?

That looks awesome. I want to get mine custom painted. With a rabid daffy duck/ godzilla sorta theme.

I dig it.  [thumbsup]

 I'm not sure about the side of the tank though, maybe a bit overkill.  :-\

 Also, how about some gold to tie in the theme with the wheels?

Is this a new trend - noobs starting on DMF with their bikes already heavily modded?

Great work so far - keep feeding us pictures, please [thumbsup]

Nice job!  I love the rear cowl and the wheels! The tank at first was too much for me but the picture of it on the bike makes it look much better.

The build and sound on these imo are the best termi no where near, have a power commander on as well new out 2007 tet engine (same as s4rs)

Title: How's the PC?
Post by: Moronic on August 23, 2008, 09:40:02 PM
Looking like quite a project.  [thumbsup]

Are you running the Zards with the stock ECU and a power commander?

If so, how does she run?


Title: Re: S4R paint and mods
Post by: BretMorris on August 23, 2008, 09:53:19 PM
I like what you have done with the paint job, very different and original.  If you havent already done them get rid of the stock mirrors and go Rizoma bar ends or something similar couples with billet grips.

Post some more pictures please.

I like the Zards as well but the Termis on my S4R arent too bad.

Post by: vecrtra on August 28, 2008, 02:21:38 PM
Well had the bike on the dyno

Had the zards fitted, dp modded airbox and K&N filter with pc3

(http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/8291/ondynofz5.jpg)

when he did the first run with the pc3 not connected it was running really lean, He did one run.
the final run was placed over the first run 122.2 bhp rear wheel

(http://img528.imageshack.us/img528/2359/beforeaftergc0.jpg)

Then he run power over torque

(http://img165.imageshack.us/img165/1368/torquerungi7.jpg)

A final run brought up 133.7 bhp at the rear wheel not bad for exhaust, modded airbox, filter

(http://img165.imageshack.us/img165/9788/1337bhprunst4.jpg)

I have the new tpo 4 valve stacks fitted which brought the power down to 129.0 bhp rear wheel so took them off


Title: And still the stock ECU?
Post by: Moronic on August 28, 2008, 07:21:14 PM
Hey vecrtra that is really helpful, thank you.

Just confirming: you are still using the stock ECU with O2 sensor plugged into exhaust, yes? And the new PCIII for this bike? (Looks like the right part No. on the dyno sheet.)

OR is the O2 sensor unplugged?

Bike looks great in those pics. Congrats.  [clap]
