Ducati HyperMotard Turbo Project
Summer is starting here is Arizona, so i decided since It's getting to hot to comfortably ride all day on the weekends, that it's time to start "Phase 2" of my HyperKromo project.
Phase 1: Is cosmetic changes to the bike. Including body work color, tail chop, seat, replacing the headlight, replacing the rear turnsignals, kickstand, etc.
Phase 2: Is performance changes to the bike. I'll be turbocharging the bike with Aerocharger 53 Series and custom exhaust.

Before you click on that link, my McAfee virus scanner popped up a message saying there was a trojan infected file there.

cant wait to see the final outcome. You must do a video when it is done and keep us posted on the process and reliability. BTW you should sell those duck foot sidestands.

I'll be posting a lot of drawings, photos and videos of the project as it progresses. I hope to have it on the rode in time for the CycleWorld International Motorcycle Show in October. That's my goal anyway. I'll have to out source a few things, so it could happen if everyone does there part in a timely manner.

It was the link to the pictures of the Multi actually, not the link to the UKMonster site. Sorry I didn't make that clear.

IMO the performance work should be done before the cosmetic stuff.
No point making the bike nice to mess it up with mechanical work later.
Also putting a turbo on a hyper is just a waste of time and money IMO.
