FRANK : Maybe a special built converter with a 10,000rpm stall and a line lock you leave off a button...... no slider and a turbo have I seen in 25 years = watching.
A special dump gate that has a timer  ????? = have to ask TURBO MAN about this question he is building a HONDAMATIC ?  Would be a fun bike to own and ride on the street, but let's no forget the fear the KAWASAKI ZIR factory TURBO gave you when the boost came on and the frame flexed so bad it put you in the next lane over at speed better not be on a two lane road = the ditch or a head on, all bad.

This thread hasn't had a post sine June of last year, any updates on the Cycle Ex dragbike project or did our friend Kenny move on to other ventures. I was really looking forward to seeing what was shaping up to be an awesome project.

Anybody out there privy to the current status of this monster??? I think a broken crank was the initial piece that sidelined its debut.

I need to call about some oversized valves myself. One of my friends promised to handle it for me himself but he left me hanging. He will go unnamed. Lol.

That going to be one expensive record breaking motorcycle when he's done. Takes money and good parts to go fast- I found that out myself :-(
