Battery

I wanted to keep a battery / alternator / starter motor all connected for Convenience

we need the smallest lightest battery known to man !

There is only one thing for it Lithium Iron Phosphate aka
(LiFePO4).

Each little battery =
300CCA / 400PCA / 5.0A, similar to a 16Ah lead acid battery
Dimensions: 143x38.5x117.5mm (LxWxH)
Weight: +/- 805gr


If you had a big V8 you can connect Multiple multiple batteries together to create a large battery

I think I will get away with one unit but if need will add another.


Thanks to the battery only being 38mm thick I can mount it inside the rear frame !

I have a lithium battery, but still concerned of the fire hazard. I never leave it charged unattended & disconnect when not in uses. Wether I’ll be able to get close enough to it, but can disconnect & removed battery in around 20 seconds

Other than my concerns, it works great

Is that what caused the garage fire that almost destroyed "Fast Freddies" ProMod and trucks?

I was told that Fast Freddie fire was caused by a Lithium Battery being on charge & unattended. Trouble is when they do catch fire, it’s impossible to put them out.

At work one of the guys brought in an RC Car with a Lithium battery and it caught fire.
It did a lot of damage to the Front Shop door (which was wooden)....

Bananarama! a duck first I have heard of this

Yep, the only consolation was that the ProMod was smoke damaged and not materially damaged.

All very sad, though, and a reminder of the risks.....

Due to my large charge cooler my coolant pipes became really difficult. Normally in the bike, there is nothing in this location.

Decided to make a top and bottom hose out of stainless not the lightest thing on the bike but reliable and will get me going.

The standard Hayabusa was a N/A (normally aspirated) bike. It used a set of 4 individual throttle bodies and was never turbo in production. The throttle bodies are held on with little rubber boots and jubilee clips.

These seem to be a real weak point and I often see people around the pit struggling with a blown-off boost hose as they try to put 20-40Psi of boost down a little rubber pipe and jubilee clip.

Below pictures are the standard street bike set up very common on most EFI N/A bikes today ..

Below we are going to use a sort of O-Ring Clamp design which I'm really hoping works

The bike will be turbo and plan to stick a lot of boost down its neck !

Trying to keep this as simple as possible we kept the injectors in the standard location as this is know.

I mean, wow. Thats a lot of pinpoint accuracy there - what a thing to weld.
Amazing Will. I mean utterly bananas, but as madness goes yours is just epic.

Stunning!

Absolutely stunning work
