Well, not even a build actually. But I don't have a thread on this bike so I thought I'd start one to keep track/ask advice as I make some changes to it.
All of this has been mentioned before elsewhere,but I'll say it again just to keep this all organized.
Chassis:
Forks- '91 CBR 1000F
Triples- '92 CBR 600 F2
Front calipers- ''92 CBR 600 F2
Front master cyl- '96 CBR 600 F3 (5/8 bore)
Rear caliper- '87 CBR 600 F1
Rear master cyl- '95 CBR 600 F3
Rims- '87 CBR 600 F1 Hurricane
Rear susp- stock raised 2''
Engine: 823cc
Case-'82 750F
Trans/clutch- 900F w/Barnett stuff
Rods- 900F
Pistons- Wiseco 10.5:1
Cams- stock 900F
Head- Ported 750F
Oil pump/pan-900F
Oil cooler- 900F
Exhaust- stock (why???)
Ok, now thats out of the way,here it is when I first got it.
Rims were all scratched and chipped. Stock 4-2 pipes choking the motor (wouldn't rev past 7k).It had stock VFR turn signals on it which were fookin' huge,so they got swapped out for some smaller el-cheapo bikemaster jobbies. And I just recently discovered the rear wheel was running 11.5 mm off center. :doh:
Oh,and how can you miss that CBR front fender. uke:
As she sits now:
Rims are powdercoated and CENTERED! I relocated the horns('cuz they stuck out like a sore thumb before) and it has decent exhaust now. It's a V&H 4-1 which I'm mostly happy with. The megaphone tucks up nicely,but I'm afraid I'm gonna drag the primary tubes...fingers crossed on that.I also removed the rear turn signals and wired in a tail light integrator thiny-ma-bob that converts my two-bulb tail light into a tail-stop-turn unit. My throw-over bags had issues clearing the turn signals.
Oh,and the new exhaust system saved 14 lbs over the stock set up :thumbsup:

So next on the list:
-lower headlight
-new clocks???
-new front fender- ideas,please
-foot peg mount modifications/possible rearsets.
-rims def need a strip or sumthin'
