The Sleeper Typhoon 183

Most will recognise this ped




Its not exactly a project but its a sort of update on were shes at

Got some mods in mind for future:

H.I.D Headlight
L.E.D Indicators & Brakelight
Stainless steel engine bolts
Sidecase drilled or cnc'd & highly polished
Carbon PMTuning duct for sidecase
Chrome PM59

Its craving more polished parts black and chrome looks sweeeet!

 

not really a sleeper with a pm 360 fitted lol

my runner was once a silly loud 172 beast, i have since replaced the exhaust with a stock unit and i am currently bidding on a stock airbox for a proper sleeper lol. might even fit a big screen and a top box for that extra LOL factor as it rips past cars on take off

 

Yeah its a little obvious with a massive expansion chamber hangin off the side lol i couldent live with a standard exhaust.. but still its not too in your face compared to most tuned peds, and i would like a standard airbox but need to mod it to fit a 25mm dellorto.

 

i didnt think the std airbox needed modding to fit a 25mm, i plan to bolt mine straight on as i was told this is normal. its only when you run straight out inlets that you cant use a stock airbox

the stock pipe is actually pretty bloody good, heavy as hell and not all that pretty but mine pulls like a train and still flys off the speedo end and hits the stopper

 

yes this is terro's ol beast.

an im gonna keep the carb setup as it is and buy a 4t gilera for transport.. f*ck the sleeper look ill be fitting 13's soon so ill lose all the stock sleeper look and hopefully have a more aggresive look, maby even fit a custom one off NRG front end not sure yet.. i didnt wanna change the look in any way but you know how it goes.

 

thats far too clean to alter,

 

Dont worry iv got enough gaffer tape body filler and tie wraps to make this beast look mint!

Hahahaha have faith lads, i have a good rep for styling just wait and see
plus im keeping all the original parts so could change it back anytime.

iv bought a 280mm disc + a set of 13" NGR wheels and im ordering a chrome PM59 w' Carbon muffler and set of michelin pilot SC tyres on payday (8th June) cant F*ckin wait!

Just need to either buy some malossi f32 forks or moddify typh forks to fit the runner speedo.

 

Lol have faith jonny

Modding what's already one of the nicest 183s in existence aint easy to get right but theres still mods he can do to improve it..It's only how it is now cos terro wanted it like that after all lol

I always thought it would be much better with nrg wheels but thats just me

 

overall terro done a top job and it looks mint but after owning it i think it looks abit boring so im gonna finish it off to my liking with more of an aggressive stance all im thinking is 13"wheels, big brakes, sticky tyres and polishing as many parts as possible not too over the top

 

will you be polishing the brg wheels

 

no they will be black im gonna polish the forks or just the bottom pieces, engine side case, exhaust end can, brake levers, front disc and change all the bolts to shiny stainless steel.. i was gonna buy a chrome PM59 but it would be too in your face and ruin the look so iv bought a normal one and ill eventually spray it black.

 

Just buy an nrg Mc2 13" front wheel, they bolt straight in the typhoon fork's using the typhoon speedo, no mod's at all!

 

Ive been looking for one of those for ages..hard to find tho

 

cheers ill keep my eyes out for one, if not then its F32 forks with polished bottoms

 

How she stands with new PM59

 

A little mock up of the front wheel/disc

 

Try ebay France, it will cost about £45 posted for a Mc2 wheel! There is a couple on at the moment.
