It started first go.
I let it run and got the temp up to normal operating and the thermo fan kicked in.
Everything seems to be working fine.
I have not road tested it yet, it seems to rev freely parked up though.
It was blowing blue smoke but i dont think that was coming from the motor because after i turned it off it was still smoking from the exshaust so i am assuming a gasket or some sealant is just cooking off.
so er um yeah just the fairings to go..........
Gday Con, It is normal for a new exhaust and gaskets to smoke a bit as it cooks of the oils and crap from handling and corrosion protection etc.
Cant wait to hear how she goes!

U might be ok on the run.
any ideas on what pipe you will run or who will do the system for you?
let us all know once your ready.
maybe 1 more run for me before the drag season begins and then its a mission to raise the bike etc and get a leave pass.
take it easy.

Hey EVERYONE, I BUMPED INTO CON TODAY WHILST GETTING A NEW TYRE FITTED FOR MY BIKE.
He is well and will visit the forum again soon. Sounds like he has been having so much fun launching into orbit with 4th gear wheelies on the TURBO BUSA.
I also let him know that we have another coffee run coming and said he was up for it. Weekends are not flash for him as he is busy working but good to hear the bikes running sweet.
Catch you soon Con.
