Finally I've bought the bike I was searching to start my fighter. A GSXR K3 1000 to release my cannibalism
I have a lot of ideas, thanks to you guys and some of my own. The bike was stolen from the previous owner, but he was so lucky that after 1 month he finds it and took it back.
The damages was:
Chopped harness here and there
All the fairings was missing (less work to do:LolLolLolLol
Damaged central lock and top yoke
Some light damage to the tank
And a missing ecu.
I already ordered a top yoke with risers from topyoke.com and bought an used ECU. The ECU plugged to the harness and the engine is working very good. The most weird for a K3 is that it have only 26000klm!
Anyway I'm in a research for a headlight. When I have the desired headlight to my hands I will start to seek a matching tail maybe make my own from scratch. Will see.
Thank you guys. I can't wait to start working on her. This weekend is gone. I'm helping my cusin to move at his new house, but I will try to do some work from tomorrow. Will see.
At last after almost three weeks that I own this bike, I've made it to do some job on her. It's raining all the time and when it doesn't rain I don't have free time due my day job :doh:
Anyway the bike is sitting like that at the moment.
And here is all the parts that came of the bike
I have alredy ordered the seat/tail (I want to have a passenger seat so I'll play it safe with that popular Monster seat)
And here is a teaser photo from the subfraim that I will go
Yea, I'm sure that there are much more aggressive tails to go with, but I've seen it at Piester's bike and some other guys in here and I think that is best combination of a conveniently and good looking seat.
Thanks for your fast reply, sorry for the delay. I often go out and leave my pc open.
At the photos the seat looks thinner than real life. Anyway I think compared with the tank gas it will look ok.
So this afternoon clened, scrabed the engine and painted. I hope that I did the cleaning job well. I hate the idea that I might have to pull the engine off, just to pain it again.
Piester I have to say with my turn that you have a very nice bike! It was my inspiration to build mine.
What color exactly is your bike? I'm thinking to paint mine, black with red pearl.
thank you. the color is a mix of reds with pearl and metal flake over a gloss black base. i called it crimson death but most pictures make it look purple
Well I hade a suspicion that you copy me
At the serious side, thats what I thought. It looks like dark purple. You are right about pictures.
I was thinking to paint my previοus project bike with that combination, but I knew that it wouldn't look well on a motard bike.
