Still interested?
Just remember, if you plan on going over 100 hp, you'll most likely need a custom lockout clutch.[ATTACH]
You could do the traditional suck-through design and use a single large carb? [IMG]
Stock bore, but had special modern improvements. I'll send you specs in a private message.
I'm not 100% on the ratio being exactly, but within .1-.5 of the original. I believe it cost me $800-850 for a set of custom pistons (JE part no#...
I used an XJ900 engine and installed forged pistons from JE pistons using stock compression. I used the XJ650 turbo oil pump and chain gear which...
Keeping it cool was a challenge! I had to find the largest oil cooler I could fit in front of the rear tire and add a custom shroud with fan. It...
I agree and will do my best to preserve this thread.
Hi there! Sadly No. The Turbo Maximus rests in the shop. I'm currently building a YZF750 superbike which has taken all my time. I plan to race it...
Hi Guys, Hope all is well! I decided to sell a Modern Yamaha R6 front end machined to fit a 1982 XJ750 Maxim frame. I had the original steering...
Cool, I'll do that!
I’ve tried! He won’t even look at the message. I thought this might catch someone’ Eye?
Bump
I have been trying to embed Instagram post on this site for sometime now with no success. When I go to embed html code, it does't process. I...

Yes http://www.xjbikes.com/forums/threads/my-82-xj750-project-shadow-warrior.35431/
I did use the XJ900S Diversion rear wheel. It was a direct fit. A 160/70R17 will fit on the stock rim.To get a lower profile race tire I needed to...
You are right. I'm limited to the gearing. I figured out on that you can modify the middle gear with a larger tooth count. I started a discussion...
Very cool! I'll check it out.
We also made a really cool video for the debut. We were trying to give a 80's race through laght night Tokyo vibe. Enjoy! As of the moment of...
I made it on BikeExif! http://www.bikeexif.com/turbocharged-yamaha-xj750-maxim-restomod [IMG]
Thanks Buddy! It's been a long road, but I stuck with it and I'm really happy with how it turned out. It all started on this site way back in 2012.
Thank you Sir! I think I've found someone, I just need to reel him in. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I'd still like to hear from someone else,...
I'm doing a professional photo shoot in the Atlanta, Ga or USA SW area to feature my bike for some feature publications later next week. I'm...
Finished the bodywork and paint just in time for the Forged invitational. I still have to break the engine in and dyno tune the bike. Almost...
Sorry for the delay on the update. I had been searching for a company that could do this with a feasible budget. I knew this was going to be a...
got my plastic mock gears in. I'll be making the middle gear tomorrow. here is a taste. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Easily into the 4 figures. I'll know hopefully soon
I've been working hard on Fusion 360 lately. I'm using this project to learn the software. Here is a running simulation of the modified middle...
I sent our bike information to http://www.gearingcommander.com for gearing and speed. At the top there is a drop down menu and select brand model,...
Right on! This will be an in depth research. These gears I bought are just off shelf stock plastic gears to test fit. I would never try to final...
Found these bad boys! The delivery is expected Friday. I'm going to test fit these over the weekend, exciting!
Thanks, but I've already been down this road. Thanks Polock, I read this article and helped out a lot. I jumped on fusion 360 and they also had...
This is essentially unfeasible. The primary gear is machined onto the crank. You would have to make a billet crank as well as a custom clutch...
I looked into swapping the rear end out to exhaustion. The XJ series bikes have the lowest ratio of all Yamaha. To find the right rear end ratio,...
If you all are familiar with my build thread, you know it's a little crazy. Well, it's possibly going to a whole other level. Having a 200 hp bike...
Ok, since this whole bike build idea all started right here, I'm going to give you all the first sketch of the paint scheme. I don't think I'm...
I'm going to be doing that last most likely. Probably be like 6-10 weeks from now. The bike will be done at that point.
It's been a LONG road, but I finally got this beast to finally run right! I had a megasquirt guru come by the shop and help with the setup. The...
Is this still for sale?
I think he still has it? There is another guy on here, Isaacson. He has a from mounted turbo, although he now has a busa he drags with. He...
Some updates, more coming soon! [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
I had a buddy approach me about my build and suggested I rethink my front end design. He thought, since I have more of a classic line from the...
I also did some metal fab work on the belly pan. I needed to make a fix for the hole I cut out of the pan to let the exhaust fit. I came up with...
I started on my taillight last night. I ordered a sheet of smoke color Polycarbonate glass from McMaster. I plan to install (3) 1.25" round red...
yeah, no thanks. I think the 160/70R17 tire will get destroyed, but ascetically looks decent. It would have been cool to have figured out the oil...
no It's just too tight in there from what I found. I tried to fabricate bypass tubes to reroute from the backside of the pump, which was...
Thanks Brother and I hear you! I was trying to embed my instagram posts on this forum and this site doesn't accept the HTML format, bummer. I did...
I thought about incorporating an water/methanol injector , but due to space and not a huge difference at my boot levels, I decided to pass. Maybe...
