[spyder]

Either someone hit a midlife crisis, or the lotto lol. Thats a huge fuckin list. Nice bike mang! Welcome

 

[Via_MacNiven]

Thanks for the welcome guys!!! Give me a warm and fuzzy feelin all over

The pic I took above was the way she looked last december, before I stripped her completely. She had about 135rwhp at that time, but I thought I'd go for it big time on the re-build.

Stripped her down to this:

And on Friday she looked like this (and yes, I did paint the other half of the garage floor ):

Engine is back in and a lot of work's been done over the weekend. Original forks are back on until I get the yokes and showa forks back from being anodised black. Same story with the swingarm, this is a spare, the other is away being plated up to look like a modern GP bike style....

I'm off out to the garage for a couple of hours so will post up a pic of where she's at now...

Need some ideas for the lights, am thinking quad HID, but finding it difficult to get any small enough.. open to suggestions...

Looky Looky! An engine and everything

Main job done today was the oil breather plate and catch tank placement (silver cylinder on the front frame rail).

It's the only place to put it that's near vertical and out of teh way of my legs/feet when I'm sitting on the bike!

Some pics...

Air shifter bits 'n bobs

 

[endo]

I'm sure someone is gonna ask...how did you make the catch tank?

Like I said before...the bike looks gorgeous man!

 

[Via_MacNiven]

Catch tank came from Japan... Plot Racing I think... need to check on that.

 

[929_adam]

whered your upside downies go?? powdercoaters??

 

[katana john]

A big welcome
Nice bike

 

[Via_MacNiven]

Yeah.. Having the tubes anodised black and the bottoms powdercoated.. Been waiting for them to come back (along with my yokes) for ages!!!!!!

Thanks for the BIG WELCOME

 

[Via_MacNiven]
