A quick little tip for cutting aluminium with disc grinder, get a bar of soap and cut into it a little bit before and during cutting. Dip it every now and then. It's night and day the difference.
This is what a love to see. A freaking necromancer of motorcycles, taking something that was destined for the graveyard and brought it back better than it was originally. You, sir, just got a new subscriber.
I like that you upgraded the bearing and seals on the turbo before even using it, that's the kind of attention to detail that shows you did that build right
Had to leave a comment on this. The bike looks amazing. Great job with the rattle can on the tank. Anyone would be proud to own/ride that. I know i would be. Well done.
I used to see truck racing on UK circuits. (A car series I was involved with was a support event to the UK Championship). It involved semi tractor units with water-cooled brakes belching steam as they ran three-abreast into corners at Brands and elsewhere.... Spectacular beyond words This is my image of a Buell... A two-wheeled racing semi. It shouldn't race, but it does. It shouldn't be fast, but it is. And this one (this build) is insane. Sublime. Like Dorothy Paget's Blower Bentleys, this unusual monster is a step past logic and into magic. My disdain for almost everything Harley is great. But this is something else. Chapeau!
@@G58 Ha ha... No. I've never been to Donnington. Never ridden there, never been as a spectator. It's a track that exists for me only on TV. Sheene was in and out of trucks before I ever saw one race. I imagine he may have been a part of the reason for Stavros Parrish getting onto trucks.... Parrish was a fixture when I occasionally saw them tearing up the track and biffing the tyre walls a few years later. I was never there for the trucks, but they certainly did grab the attention. Just awesome.
2008's are a good year to boost because they have a much stronger bottom end. I think the small and big ends of the rods are bigger, along with being lighter too. I'd love to build a turbo XB, it's just hard to find someone who paid $3,800 for a bike that wants to sink $4k into it.
I wish you had narrated/ explained the procedure - draw-over or flow-over - how you equalised pressures in the carb by tapping those extra connections - did you re-jet your carb? - enlightened us as to what tubing went where - what turbo did you use and why?
Miss my 2002 X1 Buell..great fun riding bike. The key to Buells, is replace every gasket with James Gaskets, and she'll never leak again. Also, fully float the headers or you will snap exhaust studs, I had three snap before figuring this out. I had the full race kit and it was damn fast. People used to say they didn't have any top end speed...BS...I had mine stock gearing redlined in 5th GPS indicated 154MPH. My Ducati ST4S ABS never came close to that, 135ish.
I probably would have torqued that turbo impeller nut down and put some loc-tite on it... Then again I guess the reverse pattern nut will take care of it coming loose though... I think those little turbo impeller's can spin up to 300,000 RPM though.. You made all the work look so easy though as you know your way around with all your tools and mechanical experience..
I used to leave out that stuff, but it seemed dishonest to do it like that. I noticed a lot of people saying "you make it look too easy" when in reality, sometimes I want to throw a wrench across the room too. Like when the paint cracked and I had to re-strip/sand/wash it for the second time. The "little issues" never stop, but your ability to navigate them becomes much better.
Just found your channel and had to binge watch the entire list of your builds. Your skills are next fing level! Love to watch like minded people work their craft. I am in the process of rebuilding/restoring my 1982 Yamaha Seca 650. I bought it new and it's about time for some upgrades. Keep the great videos coming. Thanks.
The hardest part of a turbo build is where to put the oil reservoir which is why I stuck to superchargers but every now and then a turbo is just amazing
Man I love your builds. And I am waiting on your turbo kit for carbureted sportsters to be done testing. Been wanting to turbo my 91 sporty. Keep em coming.
Oooo the backwards intor is a niiiiice idea man! Might steal that for my channels next vid if you dont mind! Fantastic content, appreciated it, subbed immediately.
IDK how I missed this comment but the reason I don't do more riding footage is because after people hear it run and see an acceleration pull they're gone. I've tried doing longer riding shots and it just hurts the analytics too much. 🤷♂
The Air Filter/Intake setup isn't permanent; I didn't realize how "in the way" it was until I put the actual air filter on. I'm currently in the process of coming up with a solution by slightly moving the whole turbo setup, + fabricating a 180 degree intake pipe so that it faces forwards. E-mail me, or contact me through my website (doctor-motorcycle.com) if you have bike you either want built completely, or you want to have a turbo setup made. As of right now, I'm only going to be making kits for bikes that are installed/tuned by myself at my home shop here in Arizona. There's too many variables in these early stages to start sending kits out. I won't be charging extra for install/tune on these early kits BTW, it will be $3,999 out the door. I can do Virago 920's + 1100's as well, and in fact, the next build I'm doing is going to be a Virago 920, probably a twin turbo setup 😁
Don't run the exhaust in the direction of your knee. I did that on my Turbo TR1/Virago and that was one of the worst decisions in my build as within seconds you feel like suffering from sunburn due to the radiant heat off the exhaust.
Wow I would love to do this to my Shovel but the S&S super stock 96 or 98 with the andrews gears is already being hard on the clutch but I am positive this man could cure it.
I have same problem with clear coat on first piece. On second, I apply more layers 4 or 5 i think. After cure I dont have orange skin on it. Also sticker put under clear coat for best possible protection.
Good work but i need more drive Action with your bike to see,so long work but very short drive Action with that cool bike!! Sorry for my bad english best wish Reiner from Germany
Dude, greetings from Brazil. I'm watching your videos and learning, the gs400 video inspired me to turbocharge my zongshen fly 150cc water-cooled supermoto I'm modifying the engine to 250cc. Your welding machine uses self-shielded wire, right? I built my entire workshop with a machine like that lol. Thanks for the inspiration and congratulations for your work, soon I'll start my project
The vast wealth of knowledge and experience needed to undertake a project like this is massive, hats off to you young man
Really dig videos like this, all walk, no talk
A quick little tip for cutting aluminium with disc grinder, get a bar of soap and cut into it a little bit before and during cutting. Dip it every now and then. It's night and day the difference.
This man is out here boosting his bike, and I’m just trying to get mine to run. Sick video!
I feel you 🤣🤣🤣

I admire your courage, messing around with carbs is a handful and putting a turbo on it is a whole new level. Keep the good content coming 👌.
I like that you upgraded the bearing and seals on the turbo before even using it, that's the kind of attention to detail that shows you did that build right
The part where he puts the screws into a piece of cardboard is absurdly satisfying. 🙏💯🙌🏼
This is the first time I've seen something like this... pretty incredible!
Went to every generation factory Buell school from launch to demise. Miss those days a bunch.
26 seconds in and I was already the best intro I’ve ever seen
Epic build.... I wish I had this skill. Saved for later to watch with my fulltime attention.
I miss my Buell. Lots of fun to blast around town. You did some pretty clever stuff on that build. Kudos to you.
That was incredible.
I love just zoning out and watching you work.
so cool. thank's for the work. Filming and assembling this video.
No problem, if you enjoyed this, check out the latest build video "PSIcho Scrambler"
Das beste was ich gesehen habe bis Dato .
Gratulation dazu

my dad has an M2 cyclone!!! cant wait to steal it from him to do this.. then i'll return it
crazy,crazy,crazy.....oh my god!!!!!! good,good, congratulation!!!!!! i'm from brasilian
Nice work. Good to see another Buell back on the road.

Did you ever see truck racing at Donington? I did Barry Sheen’s marketing when he was racing for Sherwood DAF. Happy days.
Ride safe.
Peace

I had a Bull 1125R until I binned it hitting gravel across the street at night. It was a phenomenal bike.
Hi friends, I've been watching you for a long time. I really like what you do. greetings from Ukraine
Are you safe from russians?
F**k all commies
@@Ritesh-ts6yq Today they fired 6 missiles at my city, 2 shot down 4 arrivals
That's quite sad. I hope you and your family stay safe. Death to all commies.
I wanted to do this to my 2008 Buell XB12Scg. Buell is my favorite motorcycle hands down

All that's on patreon. If you're good at something, never do it for free.

It's extremely doubtful that you were able to achieve 154mph on a naked Buell X1..
I probably would have torqued that turbo impeller nut down and put some loc-tite on it... Then again I guess the reverse pattern nut will take care of it coming loose though... I think those little turbo impeller's can spin up to 300,000 RPM though.. You made all the work look so easy though as you know your way around with all your tools and mechanical experience..
Guess i missed my chance to name mine psiclone lol
Love the build
Cant wait to get the turbo on mine
Thanks for the excellent filming!
Pretty relaxing watching you working :)
A man after my own heart.
Love your content, your methods and results are mint! Keep up the great work and thanks for the video.
I like to watch people struggle with bolts, clips or whatever. It gives me inner peace to know that, I'm not the only one.

Hello Mark, how is your Seca 650 project going?
@@theshirehighlander7292 great, it's slow because of time constraints, but every day I try to make some headway
Great to hear.
We Brazilians really like custom motorcycles and cars, you are doing an excellent job congratulations.
The hardest part of a turbo build is where to put the oil reservoir which is why I stuck to superchargers but every now and then a turbo is just amazing
you are an artist. I could watch your videos all day! If I was a rich man i'd hire you to build me a bike!!
Real good workmanship. Top job!
Signore, sono molto contento di questo video e il mio lavoro è diventato facile, grazie mille
Sorry I’m a little late on watching, super busy week. The bike is SICK doc! I absolutely love it!! Wayyy sicker than my custom Buell!!
Man I love your builds. And I am waiting on your turbo kit for carbureted sportsters to be done testing. Been wanting to turbo my 91 sporty. Keep em coming.
You get lots of points for putting the proper Buell decals back on the tank. Makes a massive difference for the bike's appearance if you ask me.
Awesome video and awesome content can’t wait for the next video Thank’s
Oooo the backwards intor is a niiiiice idea man! Might steal that for my channels next vid if you dont mind! Fantastic content, appreciated it, subbed immediately.
Best built yet!!! 👌👌
You are amazing at this!
excellent work man !!!
That is a great build!!!
awesome man i love people building cool one offs like this
Nice work...
with knuckles like that might think you beat up new weather guy...
You can tell a true mechanic by the state of their knuckles.😄
Do you have separate video about your enhancement of turbine and in general turbines for carbs?
We need more footage of all of your projects running! They are all astonishing but we need more vroom vroom if you catch my drift.
IDK how I missed this comment but the reason I don't do more riding footage is because after people hear it run and see an acceleration pull they're gone. I've tried doing longer riding shots and it just hurts the analytics too much. 🤷♂
This thing is siiick! Great video and build bro 💯🙌
Even blurred and blacked out the eye zapper 9000 👌🏻👌🏻
this doesn't look like a street bandito video.
Restorasi paling mantap Boss ku 👍👍👍 I like it
bike sounds insane
Now this, is ASMR
Boy , very good work.
Ghost Riders turbo charged Hyabusa was pretty sick
Insane skills....would love to see some performance figures!
Great details on the build... 💪
Absolute mad Max 🤪 creation
Sei un GRANDE!!!!👍🤙💪
nice works .headers work perfect
Nice one Jimmy. The bike looks and sounds awesome 👌
I really do like your cut to cut
I have the same bike and turbo. This is awesome
Complimenti.. bel lavoro 👍
Mmaaannn I see this while sitting in my garage looking at my M2 all like hhhhhmmmmm......
Absolutely awesome!! You fancy doing my gpz9r 1984 completely original........in boxes lol

Bro I need this kit for my M2!
Thought it looked awkward to ride
Why not use the stock header pipes to get it run down low then mount the turbo in front between the frame and the front wheel?
What a great job, thanks for sharing,,,,, 👍
My favourite thing on this bike has to be the A symmetry with the guages and the honking turbo. Bike looks amazing!
Great art for real 🤙
Wow I would love to do this to my Shovel but the S&S super stock 96 or 98 with the andrews gears is already being hard on the clutch but I am positive this man could cure it.
Beautiful job!!
I have same problem with clear coat on first piece. On second, I apply more layers 4 or 5 i think. After cure I dont have orange skin on it. Also sticker put under clear coat for best possible protection.
This is literally a Harley moto. Wish they still made them. Very strong motor
Always wondered about a turbo BUELL
Beautiful stuff as always! Love your attention to detail with your builds 😯
new to the channel second vid 4 me but both videos had very little seat time. love to c a little more riding ur creations
Love the vid!
Travail très soigné 👍👍👍
Keep up to good works 👍👍👍
That is a good technique 👍!
Well done.
Pretty smart man he knows his job well done cheers 👍👍😀🦘🇦🇺
The bloody knuckles..... mine look like that after an oil change😂
Такая серьёзная подготовка к сварке и такие швы хоть бы не заострял на этом внимание тогда.

Hehe, busted
