Last 50 of 102- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Parts have arrived and i am pretty confident this will be a good working unit again. A small change in plans. It is not possible to change the impeller without a total teardown of the rotrex, while interesting enough…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. SEBSPEED, 5/11/2022 at 8:33 PM A pic from the other day. I have since installed the upper cowl with lights and am just waiting to get in the paint booth to finish the right side panel, then it will be done. [image:…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Valve cover cleaned up nicely, radiators even more so. I even found som hidden developing issues needed sorting. The last pictures are just for fun. Rsv4 water pump housing vs the VFR. RC51 Left radiator vs VFR Therese…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. 2 hours ago, SEBSPEED I have an earlier model Rotrex from the original Toro production run. I did the oil relocation to save time in the future in case it's needed, and because I was re-plumbing the system to add the…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. 9 hours ago, SEBSPEED I did, I mounted a new tank on the right side behind the fairing. I also reconstructed the cooling system with a different radiator configuration so I could add a cooler for the Rotrex oil. I'm…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. 51 minutes ago, SEBSPEED What do you have cooking? I'm interested to hear your findings. I am aware that the newer iteration of the C15 does not use a shaft oil seal, and so all the oil needs to be located below the…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. I'm ashamed! She does not look pretty without her clothes! Let's see what we can do about this... I've made some research and tried to analyze the charger failure. There might be some very interesting information coming…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. 5 hours ago, Sweeper I hate riding a motorcycle at posted speeds! I'd propose that there should be a separate limit for motorcycles. Maybe I'll run for public office? You go to office and fix this stupid rule!
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. 11 hours ago, Dutchy [image: image.png.1dd71e17538d8a32d66a2577836f751a.png] Does this still hold true? Back in 2016 I kept this in the back of my head... [image: IMAG4488.jpg] No, there is nothing true about it. The…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. 18 hours ago, squirrelman supercharger on your vfr ?? bike will overheat easily, and the clutch might not be able to handle the extra power. RAEVA MI VERKER ! It's hot for sure, but Norway's not! This clutch myth is…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. 21 hours ago, Dutchy Better than parking your pennies on a savings account no? :tongue: [image: image.thumb.png.da1042089c2044fc9998f9cec6f225f9.png] I saw this last year at the bank, put it all in crypto instead - that…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Mohawk, 3/6/2022 at 11:22 PM You could always use 2-stroke IR EGT sensors, one per header. That is a great idea sir!
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Today I had the time to sneak the vfr past all my projects and in to the shop. It's a wierd feeling because I am super excited to find the cause of the loudest supercharger i ever heard - and I've been at top-fuel…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. 16 minutes ago, Sweeper As I read this, it hit me that I know three people with supercharged VFRs! What are the odds of that?😀 Well, you have made some right choices in your life 🙂 I seem to remember 11 sold...

- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. 21 hours ago, SEBSPEED Found what I needed thank to @Cogswell Good! I'm sorry for not replying here, but I don't get Tapatalk/vfrd to work. Do you have the kit as well?
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Dimsport confirmed today that there is only fuelcut available for quick shift. That's no good... They also confirmed that delivery will happen next week.
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. JZH Well, it'll hold this much: [image: Torocharger-11-1-08.thumb.gif.fe45361859f8d6af2375272fd64bd50e.gif] How much more does he need?!? (I'm missing my Yellow Peril,,,) Ciao, JZH It was at 183hp/76nm in 2010. Clutch…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. squirrelbrains OK u have alot more heat 2 dissipate so overheating will be problem, innit ? on a bike prone 2 run run hot alreadi ?? Well one should think so, but actually it is not a big deal with this Nordic climate.…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Mohawk Hey Wacken, the RBR uses a variable table like the PC. And it is a % +/- add/remove duty cycle system too, same as PC So you can pop any PC map into excel & then select what you want from the PC & drop into the…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. squirrelbrains your clutch won't hold much additional power. Ra eva mi verker Hvorfor har du vondt i ræva? Yeah, I've been thinking about that, it's been holding up nicely for 30k km now, but it will let go at some…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Still struggling with delays due to corona. At least it's been pulled from storage an kicked back to life. http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/5ef99bb9b0ea8/received_1214455655552611.mp4 [image:…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Mohawk What is it you need to know about RBR ? I have it setup on my 5th gen with MTB & 120hp normally aspirated. As an FYI, I just changed the throttle bodies to a spare set of 99 ones with a choke lever as the wax…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Dan once told me that the s2000 injectors are a drop in and 390cc, plentyful for my current goal and then some! what needs to be modified on the gsxr ones? Do you have Part number? Seems like the s2000 injectors share…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. I got an answer I never suspected! copy/paste via our distributor: Unfortunately it is not possible attaching other sensor to Rapid Bike (except for the wideband Lambda of My Tuning Bike). But maybe it will be…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. That is a great write-up Mr Mohawk! Sorry for the pause, this is still something that is going to happen! I'm now in dialog with the distributor which has to contact the manufacturer. This has been in hold for a while…
- Fuel Pressure Regulator Needed ? Why don't you adjust the preload on the spring on your OEM?
- Sealant for stator replacement? Rtv silicone is my go to and yes, i always use it.
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. A small update. Headers showed up one week ago, so i'm starting my rapidbike research based on the somewhat limited knowledge the Norwegian distributor has. RapidBike is pretty new to all of us, besides one crf1000…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA sfdownhill Duc2V4 and I got the first nasty surprise of this project when we went to pay Wade the balance due and pick up the headers VFRD members had ordered and paid for. Our group had ordered a total of 24 sets of…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA Voided76 it would be a cheaper road to fab a turbokit from a GSXR600 to the VFR. and it would be a monster for quick spooling afterwards. Unless I'm only in need of the radiator...
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA SEBSPEED 6th would be ideal, but fit to a 5th would suffice for my purposes, which is to run a lower front rad on my Torocharged 6th gen. Quote me one of those when your finished fabricating [image: emoji6.png]
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA sfdownhill Then how are we supposed to get the inside of the pipes clean? Water/meth and wot, easy...
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA HighSideNZ Looking good. One thing that people may need to be aware of is the bottom O2 bung is quite level so you need to make sure it cannot get and hold water vapour during start/warm up, especially when being warmed…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA sfdownhill I weighed it at a Postal Annex shop - 7.3kg / 15.9 lbs And how much of that is just steel?
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA kave Nc30 is where my v4 obsession started. They are magnificent machines. Shame those examples have been "improved" with what looks like tyga fairings Yep, Tyga all the way. It's whats inside that counts [image:…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA Couple of vfr 400 nc-30 pics taken today. Don't know the firing order but both banks merged together. These are feckkin jewels![image: 5e16fde885961f9885cc76650fa6971f.jpg][image:…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Cogswell Check in with CornerCarver - he's got his Toro bike tuned using a Rapid Bike setup. He's got it dialed in - definitely knows what's what with 6th gen forced induction. I'm 5th gen, but I'm sure the difference…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA BuzznerSuntrusts BUNG! Hole!
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. Duc2V4 Wakken, The man to talk to about Rapid Bike is CandeyRedRC46, he seems to be the one most knowledgeable on it's capabilities. The other person to speak to would be Yaman Turan at Rapid Bike, he was very helpful…
- Time to crank up the SuperCharger. After many years of hibernation it's time to take my SuperCharger to the next level. In a matter of weeks I will receive 3 O2 bungs attached to a header! Thank you so much to the guys responsible for all your hard work…
- Rapidbike users, what are you doing for ignition advance? Nobody?
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA @sfdownhill, if I could get the thickness of the delkevic i can source them locally. don't want it to be crushed into the port when tightening. I'd suggest a group-buy for lower cost and getting proven gasket, making…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA MooseMoose Yeah, [mention=13175]WackenSS[/mention] 42mm round copper gaskets are available from Delkovic USA, but aren't on their website. Just email them and ask for them specifically, or call them. They are less than…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA sfdownhill Here’s an important installation note about the new headers: using anti-seize on the head stud bolts (recommended) reduces friction enough that the 9 ft-lbs torque for the header nuts specified in the service…
- New 5th/6th/8th gen performance header now in production in USA Sure looks beefy, right up there with the 1000cc headers! [image: emoji16.png] But how does it sound?
- 5th & 6th VFR 800 Header build 517 replies and just shy of Christmas! Well done guys!
- 5th & 6th VFR 800 Header build BiKenG BTW, don't rely on Haynes for ANYTHING. [image: emoji16.png] This is just 100% correct sir!!!
- 5th & 6th VFR 800 Header build JZH Unless it's a late-registered FiX (and I don't see a choke lever on there), he's bought himself a set of cat'd-headers, though... Ciao, JZH Pretty sure I see HISS there, so he will probably find an O2 sensor here as…
- 5th & 6th VFR 800 Header build LouisWhiteCSK If the other fabricators don't pull through with a quality part we're happy to get cracking on this once we have someone willing to donate a bike and pay for the first set. The bonus of us producing them…
