After building and selling a few oilcoolers in the past, I had to own another one so I bought a 92 1100 which originally came from Belgium (like my Busa, my first girlfriend was Belgium too, a fetisch? ). After some time of doubt which way to go(steetfighter, caferacer), I decided that it should be some kind of dragbike which I could use for the DHRA streetlegal series. I always loved dragracing and now I am going to try to participate at a low level. Just streetlegal nothing fancy and just for fun. I could use my Busa which has some tuning done(180rwbhp) but what is the fun of that? The oilcooler has untill now a stage 3 tovami-kit, duplex K&N's, a V&H sidewinder and a longer underbraced swingarm fitted with 6 inch rearwheel. I have lowered it and will post a picture of the current state soon. Some minor work has yet to be done, like fitting the Earls oilines, brake and clutchlines and the longer chain. Then I have to register the bike. In the future as funds allow, I want to prepare the engine for nitrous applications. latest picture but former state.

It will not be very noticeble but in the meantime there has been a lot done to the bike. First the frame has been changed for a dutch registred one. The engine has new camshafts, camchain and tensioner. Valveclearance adjusted. Manifolds for nitrous foggers installed. Oil lines from Earls are waiting in the shed. Than a new chain and bleeding the brakes and clutch. So it wont be long for a first drive.
