Hello everyone! My name is Brandon. I have posted in the newbie section and I have lurked for a a month or two. I bought this 1995 900 RR last summer. It has been fully checked out and has a swapped identical 900 RR engine with roughly 11,000 miles. The bike It's self has about 58,000.
This is how it looked when i bought it.
Took her home shined her up and rode her for a while.
But I started to not like the way she looked and decided I was going to sell the bike and try to get something else but she didn't sell and I started looking at ways I could modify the bike to make it look more modern and not so bulky and outdated. That's when I came across some really nice 900 RR fighters and I fell in love and knew that's what I wanted to do. I began lurking this site and immediately registered and started checking out everyone's builds.
So I just jumped right in and removed the fairings, stock headlight, and mounted my stock gauges for now until I can afford a nice aftermarket one and ordered some bar end mirrors.
got some new grips..just starting small and working my way up
Ordered a 7 inch round headlight 55 w High and low beam DOT approved I found out the hard way first I ordered china headlight and I didn't read the fine print..It was a piece of junk I have flashlights that are brighter. So I made some simple brackets and fitted the headlight.
Haven't had the money to spend on parts so I have been working on polishing my frame.
Its getting there but still have alot of work to do on it this is only up to 400 grit. Going to a mirror finish. I plan on doing some sort of headlight fairing next and lots of mods to come. The only issue this bike has right now is my fan isn't kicking on when my temp gets up and if I'm riding i have to keep moving to keep it cool. Any suggestion as to what may be the issue?
Thanks for looking guys and there will be more updates to come!
