The super-sticky tires are holding it to the wall, he is standing right next to it at a comfortable working height.

Screenshot_20160811-175004.jpgI found this, the part where he says "gsx1100 turbobike" referring to the oil pump to use on his 850

That "GSX1100 turbobike" must be something aftermarket, as the only turbo bike that Suzuki offered was a 650.
You would have to track the source of that thread to see where they found the pump gears.

A serious suggestion;
Look into ditching the shaft and put a chain conversion on. It's been done, but I don't have the info to hand. It's not as easy as on the Kwack 750, which had a removeable front bevel box, but once you remove the front drive bevel gears, you're confronted with a splined shaft sticking out of an oil seal from the crankcase, which will accept a sprocket (even if it has to be machined up). The remaining parts of the bevel box housing can be chopped away.
I don't know what chain swingarm would fit, but for sure some engineering will be needed.
As far as the crank goes - I'd weld it for sure. I've successfully twisted an 850 crank, much to my surprise.Last edited by Grimly; 08-11-2016, 09:41 PM.---- Dave

To be completely serious, neither are good candidates for turbocharging. Go find a chain-drive bike and boost it.
Just keep sawing, welding, and generally ruining the 850 and 1000 until you two finally give up and part them out. Or, perhaps you'll do like 95% of the "customizers" and put them on Craigslist for 20X what they're worth.

Google around; you will find it somewhere. I'd go so far as to say somebody wrote about it on here at some point.---- Dave
