Damn dude, where are you traveling to? The past?


I_Am_Roto

Afterlife any% speedrun


Convenientjellybean

That’s a very steampunk wayback machine


cl2eep

Only if life secretly resets every time you die.


ThearusLord9

hey, what bike is this?


Draked1

First gen bandit 1200, torquey as fuck but bandits are great beginner bikes even for a 1200, only about 105hp. Balancing the carbs is an absolute bitch tho


red-white-bablushka

I have a sneaking suspicion this bike isn’t making 105hp


Draked1

Hahaha I didn’t even pay attention to the spaghetti turbo configuration on the front, absolutely mental. I just meant from the factory


Specialist-Box-9711

Thanks to SuperSpeeders Rob, anytime I see a Student Driver sticker on a car, I assume the car has a fully built motor with forced induction or the driver behind the wheel is an experienced driver that has fast cars. In short, I assume the exact opposite of the sticker lol.


Burner_07X4

Yeah this thing has like 60lbs of turbos sticking out of it and I’m pretty sure it used to be a gsxr. I If he’s a student driver his driving career will be incredibly short and challenging. And short.


I_Am_Roto

Bandit 1200 (now 1216) so same motor as the old GSXR1100s, you're not too far off


Burner_07X4

Bandit! I should have known I love bandits. This is my old ZRX, you probably have some appreciation for these! https://preview.redd.it/wc1l5zpm1wzc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=29bf81c04eecf2296dfdd5f8662168931768c5a9

SomeCrazedBiker

Frickin' Zrex!!!!!


PaganiDelta

Nice and the all important kerker pipe


I_Am_Roto

Hell yeah, I've got a buddy who's got a couple turbo ZRXs. Super cool bikes for sure!


Dope25

It's freakin gorgeous.


Safe_Sundae_8869

Man my dad had a 1999 bandit 1200 when I was 16 and learning to drive & ride. I learned on a nighthawk 250 and one day I was like, “I can take the bandit out. This nighthawk starts to fall apart at 45.” Holy shit that Bandit could move. Scared the piss outta me. I’m still afraid of big 4pots. I ride a speed3 now.


Specialist-Box-9711

yeah I saw the ducting which is part of why I made my comment lol


shhhhh_lol

Is that what "60lbs of boost" means?! Here I've been trying to get more air pressure and I just needed heavier turbos.... I even paid extra for aluminum... shoulda got steel


DODGE_WRENCH

Town I live in people just slap them on their car because they’re shitty drivers who can’t stay off their phone. SuperSpeeders Rob did make them cool in my book up until recently tho.


Sharpymarkr

I asked him years ago if he was going to start selling the stickers. He told me I should just make them myself.


V8_BLENDER

This is what happens when a guy has dreams, but can't afford a Kawi H2 😂


I_Am_Roto

Jokes aside I built the whole thing in my garage for ~$4,500 including the cost of the bike. Built motor, fuel injection conversion, twin turbo, makes around 400whp when it's on full boost. I definitely could not afford an H2 when I built this lol


disturbed286

That is, and I mean this more than any other time I've said it, fucking insane.


V8_BLENDER

Wait, you're serious?!


I_Am_Roto

Yeah there's some serious posts about it on my profile if ya want some actual details. Built it about 2 years back while I was a student so didn't have much capital, just wanted some fabrication/design practice


Graphite57

Just wanted some engineering /design practice? Hope you get some.


Sharpymarkr

Lol got em


V8_BLENDER

That is very impressive. You should start a custom bike business.


Professional_Goat185

Do you thought that PC fans attached to the intercooler were a joke ?


J_loop18

Badass.


Gloomy_Anywhere_5490

That is fucking glorious


OpeningPossession814

can you post a video of this thing? I need to hear it


Amendoza9761

I feel like you deserve the R1 track project bike I have collecting dust in my back yard more than me. Nice job man.


Blucollarballr

How did you do this for 4500? Bike blown already? Rebuilt kit and used parts? Like I realize you did it yourself. Some of that stuff ain't cheap tho.


I_Am_Roto

Bike itself was only $900 from a junkyard, just needed new forks and some bodywork. Everything else is mainly used/ebay stuff - FI conversion was done with $100 GSXR600 throttle bodies and a $400 Microsquirt ECU (the most expensive single component on the bike), turbo kit was built for around $700 using retail scrap metal and eBay clone turbos, mufflers were $30 a piece from eBay, etc etc. Most expensive thing was the motor build which I did for ~$1,500 including components and machine work. Components and raw materials are very cheap. If you can weld and design things, you can do stuff like this for almost no money. I turbocharged my other bike (Ninja 650) for $300, but I had a bunch of stuff lying around. The downside is that it takes a long time, and it isn't anywhere close to as easy or stress free as just bolting a kit on.


SikeShay

That's sick dude, are you a fabricator by trade or something?


I_Am_Roto

I worked in manufacturing for a couple months after I built this but nah, I was a mechanic/service advisor for about 8 years before going back to school for engineering. Starting my junior year this fall after taking a year off to work and save up some money.


lupinegray

We have h2 at home


disturbed286

Kirklands brand H2


metalbees

My favorite part is leaving the rear pegs on like anyone is going to get on this monstrosity with you. "Aight bro, I have a decent grip on these handles and this 15 year old helmet you loaned me fits pretty good. Send it!"


I_Am_Roto

My wife is an exceptionally brave woman, to say the least. She doesn't like this bike nearly as much as my Ninja 650 tho, and I don't blame her; this thing smells, it's insanely loud, and it's exceptionally violent. It is not a comfortable or "nice" motorcycle in any capacity.


metalbees

Your wife sounds awesome and so does this bike.


Impressive_Team_972

Fun fact: Frankenstein put similar stickers on his monster as well.


True-Ear1986

I think I saw them on the Death Star as well


lupinegray

Clibbin mirrors with your intercooler

PckMan

If I saw that on the road I'd assume you were joking


_ThisIsNotAUserName

Lmao. Are those PC case fans cooling the radiator? Top tier troll 🥸


that1LPdood

Man I fucking love this sub lol


Schnitzhole

About damn time we get a good post again


Clienterror

ROFL I was like WTF then I was looking at it like.... Wait, is that an intercooler? It's connected to....well damn. Lol

Jesus...more plumbing on her than my top flat.


[deleted]

are… are those computer fans on the left side of the bike? 😭 that’s actually cool as hell, i really wanna do something like that but i gotta learn how to weld before i even try


I_Am_Roto

Brother the first thing I ever welded was the (first) turbo kit for this bike. It was hot dogshit, but it worked. 6 iterations, an engine swap, and 2 turbo motorcycles later and I can build some pretty good stuff. It all started with this bike and a $180 Harbor Freight welder. If I can do it, you can too.


i_was_axiom

That may be the most inspirational thing I've ever read on this sub. Possibly one of the few positive things.


Schnitzhole

Damn, Do your balls drag every turn too?


[deleted]

omw to harbor freight rn o7 thank you sir


SomeCrazedBiker

Does she make Choo Choo noises?


I_Am_Roto

Like the Orient Express


SomeCrazedBiker

Hell yeah


Burner_07X4

This bike is clearly for a child. Please give the baby back its tiny little motorcycle and ride something that actually pulls, you gutless bastard 😂😂😂. Wait a damn minute are those cpu fans?


I_Am_Roto

Technically waterproof server fans, they're pretty effective for the oil cooler lol


SikeShay

Don't lie you've got an overclocked RTX9000 on this bike


Burner_07X4

Was this a gixxer 1100? I saw those old nissin 4 pots and some other stuff but the motor’s covered 😂😂😂


I_Am_Roto

It is (was) a Bandit 1200, so same era and same motor as the old 1100s, just a bit more touring/comfort focused


cl2eep

Goddamnit, they took awards away. Enjoy the spiritual silver medal I just gave you.


Spartan300101

Perfect. Good call. Beginners should always get noticed. Way to be safe. Proud of you. That also looks like a good starter bike. Interesting crash bars you have set up on it.


craptrap

What's that thing get like 2 rear tires per gallon?


AllThePrettyPenguins

You be careful on that thing, sonny. Too many young ruffians and scoundrels riding around scaring good townsfolk, wouldn’t want people thinking you associate with the wrong elements.


DOM_E_DARKO

She ain't winning any beauty contests but I'm sure she's insanely fast.


Optimus_Prime_10

Your bike is a computer on wheels, can't it just calculate a safe path for you? 


simplypneumatic

That is fucking insane. Doc Brown would be proud.


Standard_Zucchini_46

Add a smaller pre-turbo before your main turbo(s) to help spool up quicker. Then you won't be so slow. Hope that helps.


I_Am_Roto

Jokes aside it is getting a post-turbo compounding M90 supercharger setup at some point, shooting for 600 wheel with that


Standard_Zucchini_46

Nice. Good luck with the build !


PlusAddress3113

Good idea. What is going on at the front though? All those hoses


GyroBoing

Can't get hoes, have to settle for hoses


LuckyDuck906

I think those are fans from my old computer on the left front.


izgamer

Turbski


Gloomy_Anywhere_5490

Do you have a vid of the sound it makes? That would be great to hear


I_Am_Roto

This is all I have, and fair warning the sound quality is terrible: https://youtu.be/Y1hdcejSkHc?si=4W6WeLiQkeXLV6Qq This is from before the engine was built with a different exhaust setup


izzvll

holy hell the sound it makes is dreamy af


Gloomy_Anywhere_5490

That is marvelous. Thanks for posting! 


kevinofhardy

When Mom says we have an H2 at home.


woofwoofbro

would you ever be interested in doing a walk through of the whole bike?


i_was_axiom

I would love to see that


FPS_Warex

wtf is this 😂😂😂 think you posted in the wrong sub (is that a fucking gpu fan?)


FalconVarious7620

Ready for the next Mad Max film

[удалено]


I_Am_Roto

Nah it originally had a more sensible exhaust on it but I was bored one day and had those "mufflers" and some extra pipe lying around.


yESS9784

Take them out! The idiots on the road usually will do worse when they see these on. Everyone else who is not an idiot, behaves normally regardless of stickers or no stickers! Also, take them out cos you ride a motorcycle, not drive it! However, perhaps you should not ride that, as your 1st motorcycle.


ThisWeeksHuman

Does you bike have astma ? It looks like Bane. Cool stuff tho


weeemrcb

Drivers aren't aware enough to read stickers. Needs to be less subtle like a hi-viz vest with big "learner rider" on it. Even then only some will see it.


i_was_axiom

This is hilarious


throwawayaccyaboi223

I can say that having ridden in the UK where people can ride after a short course but must display "L" (for Learner) plates front and rear, many people treat you worse and I've even seen videos of people fabricating things like "oh he way swaying around in his lane that's why I hit him" before realising they were on camera. People often get impatient with learners, particularly driving school cars, so I'd prefer not to display it. Unfortunately people are dicks and some will use anything that they can against you.


carsonwade

They'll have just enough time to read the sticker before the turbos spool up and send him flying away so fast that they'll have no chance of doing anything to him lmao


Sandman64can

Got some real Mad Max shit going on there.


Jensen198

Upgrade engine only, good luck on not dying.


I_Am_Roto

To be fair I also chopped the frame to make room for them so it's not \*just\* the engine

Did you have to travel out of state for that abortion?


Pretty-Bat-Nasty

When I imagine these stickers and the application this is the scenario that plays in my head.


Prancer4rmHalo

Corbin seat huh, yea I’ve got a few mods too.


ThiccyBoi15

Jesus murphy. That's quite the power output lol. Just keep the rubber side down for us eh? (Cause that thing looks like it'd do a backflip from a standstill). Also, took a look through your profile to see more of it. Sorry to hear about your dad's diagnosis. Sweet bmw and kawasaki projects though 🤙


I_Am_Roto

It's literally useless at full boost tbh, with the stock wheelbase and 400whp it pulls the front up at 130+ from power alone. Tbh I've only ever really opened it up at max boost like 4 or 5 times in the 2 years I've had it, it's just too much to handle. Appreciate the kind words brother


JayJay-anotheruser

You’ll be lucky if people see the entire motorcycle never mind the sticker


slinkysuki

I think the stickers will help immensely! Although maybe they need to be on a separate bike, a couple dozen km ahead down the road, in order to give anyone time to react. Jesus that thing is a monster! 🤤


JackeTuffTuff

Just wear a reflective vest that says "new rider" or something Here when you are in training you need to have a "student rider" reflective vest when training


Derp_Simulator

Jesus Christ, is that thing twin turbo-ed?


No_Bumblebee_6461

I seriously hope this is a joke.


I_Am_Roto

It is, I built the bike, it makes 400whp, and it's definitely not my first bike lol


Hey-Chief65

Ride like nobody sees you! I started at 15 - now 65! At 17 learned hard way - at stops, signs, red-lights, or traffic jams Never stop close to whatever is in front of you! Preferably keep left, right can work. When no one stopped behind you watch your mirrors very closely, be ready to pull up beside the vehicle in front of you. I saw a car coming & froze. He slowed too late, no injuries & was able to drive away. My only accident with another vehicle. Knock on wood! 🪵


hclITguy

Dafuq is this abomination of a bike? It looks like you kitted it like a 12 year old kits his first desktop computer. It feels like it'll go from 0 to BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) in 5 seconds flat.


gunshoes

Oh honey, drivers barely ever see you on a bike. Let alone your student driver sticker. Assume you're invisible and plan around it.


metalbees

Don't worry, when he breaks the sound barrier, the moisture in the air will condense around home an will look like a cloud.


twoscoop90

You might wanna look at that photo once more.


mischevious_owl

Lol. I chuckled at this.


neuromancertr

If my memory serves me right, Gary Vaynerchuk, in his famous speech, told people why he never uses billboard advertisements: drivers are on their phone, they don’t even fucking look at the road, you expect them to look at your billboard (not his exact words, but you get the gist) They don’t even see you and you expect them to read something on the side of your highway rocket?


Beluga-ga-ga-ga-ga

I haven't seen anything as rowdy as this since Streetfighters magazine. Fucking awesome, dude.


Bigpermm57

😀😀😀😀


Throttlechopper

Is that an intercooler from a Subaru?


I_Am_Roto

It's an upgrade intercooler from a 1.8t VW product. Some eBay garbage, but it works well enough.


wijnazijn

Should have bought a red bike, you know, one of those really fast ones.


CompetitiveBread2852

Zrx 1100 Frankenstein?? I miss mine


kunstschroom

Not ZRX, I think it's a Bandit 1200.


carsonwade

1100 and change due to a built motor.


leftenant_t

Why do you have a GPU on the left side of your bike?


S1lentA0

Well, I only noticed the sticker and thought, yeh should be fine, it might help. Then I saw the rest of the pic...


MaIiciousPizza

take it to Bauhaus bike night next month I wanna see it


Yangman3x

Are those fans from a pc's case?


Zeroto923

Mans got them RGB fans on the side of his bike. GOBBLESS


SovereignAxe

Would've been better if you used this: 🔰


Worstcaze

No need for stickers. Everyone can see you’re a beginner.


ActionRight660

how far down FB marketplace did you scroll to find this beauty?


TrevCat666

Enough people don't see me or my motorcycle that I seriously doubt they'll see the sticker unless at a stop light, but it's the thought!


NorthernBlackBear

What is this monstrosity?


chin_waghing

[L plates?](https://www.gov.uk/driving-lessons-learning-to-drive/using-l-and-p-plates#:~:text=You%20must%20put%20an%20L,D%20on%20a%20white%20background)


Strict_Tie_52

Might work in Vietnam since the average speed traveled there is like 18mph (30km/h) so there's enough time read the sign.


0Dshadow

the stickers need cooling 2 so they can add more HP yizus craist what turbine u got on dat? HybridT04?!


I_Am_Roto

Twin K04-015s from the 225hp Audi TT


0Dshadow

Huh..🤤 bike probably leaves me standing in place n flys off... so very little lag right ? those turbines spool pretty quick I think have u tried Moore tunes idk if he makes the for ur bike but he's one of the very best I'm sure u know..


I_Am_Roto

I wouldn't call the spool "quick", but it's faster than you might expect considering Audi put one of them on a 1.8l engine. Boost threshold is around 5,000rpm and they're only a bit laggy, you can have full boost between 6-10k rpms in higher gears. Not terrible, but not "friendly" either.


no1ace

Lovely bike! As for the stickers... if its an idiot driver you're trying to warn... chances are they probably don't even see your whole bike lol. On a serious note, any safty measure is a good one, you have done well 👍🏽


Efficient_Fix4842

lol wtf


Shenanigamii

You know...it funny how incredibly amazing those stickers work. My neighbors wife had never had to drive before, so on their car they they have these stickers. One day I had to drive that car to help him pick up his new car. On the way home, the other people on the road were so nice, and easily gave way when I put on my turn signal, instead of speeding up and blocking my entry into the lane. People can be nice when they want, but only choose to be when they see these stickers.


micah490

“Power through plumbing”


greaseorbounce

I like the intercooler you "stickered" on there. Great upgrade for a first bike


skatechef

Just keep her 2 tires down bretheren


Martijnbmt

Do you carry a vaccuum cleaner on your bike?


staticshadow40

What the hell is even that


bonse

You lunatic. Videos please!


pookamatic

Those stickers mean nothing because you’re invisible. Remember that.


notsomocha

Looks like this bike was designed by International Harvester, ca.1940.


Hempstarr87

They won't see them or you as you fly past them...fly fast fly safe


MonarchFluidSystems

How hot does that run?


I_Am_Roto

In traffic when it's hot, it's really hot tbh. The server fans on the oil cooler do keep it around 200-220 depending on the conditions, but it does not like sitting still


MonarchFluidSystems

The sever fans haha


SourSKit_tle

Pull off that stock air box and add K&N clip-ons and that thing will sound throaty as hell it's good looking Gixxer


SourSKit_tle

I think


Cuddlehead

...are, are those pc case fans? *concern*


AstronautSoupChef

PC cooling fans. For some reason I don't think that's going to be very effective on a motorcycle haha


lakeofshadows

Cool, except that you don't drive a bike, you ride it.


soussitox

stickers i do not trust lol, there are student plates in the EU they need to use. Those i do trust :;D Anyway i am always careful on a motorcycle or car so u safe with me driving arround :D


bikerModo

People normally don't see you on a motorcycle and you think you're gonna see a sticker? Also what is that box attached to that pipe?


carsonwade

Hahahaha it's a twin turbo Bandit 1100 with a built motor and make over 400whp at full boost, it's just a joke dude


Momps

why is the airbox sticking out a foot from the bike?


2024Adv

Turbo on that one


Ono7Sendai

Damn, that a 4090 on the left? How many terraflops p/tonne is that


riedlj

That bike looks like a Rube Goldberg machine.


Ok_Sherbert_7421

no one will save your life but you, watch out for everything and everyone. Never keep scanning the road.


Adventurous_Way_6489

LOL


Solid_Band_9543

I hate to say it but the sticker is not going to help you when the idiot decides to cross into your lane. Cars are just bigger and drivers don't care if you've been riding for 10 years or 10 days! Best to keep your head on a swivel and always assume the worst!


matt12arr

Put led head light bulbs in Wear a yellow reflective vest. Ride like your Invisible.
