.
On NOV 2022 I purchased a HONDA VTR1000 converted into streetfighter (1400$ for a bike). It can be said that it is 90% complete but with defects.
issues at the begining:
plans, mods, upgrades:
Below photos from the day of purchase.

What have I been able to do during this period of time ?
+ Mod of MT-03 lamp (Bi-lens for halogen or LED H1 bulb + angel eye, inner plastic painted to black, outher plastic painted to main bike color), amazing difference, the lens shines brilliantly.
+ assembly of all brake and clutch stainless hoses,
+ I found fuel level sensor from a Chinese 125ccm motorcycle (5$ only), it fits perfectly with the bolt and the hole to the tank, the only thing that needs to be changed is to bend the sensor to work freely from 0 to 100 ohms then I already have the fuel level on koso meter.
What am I going to do ?
+ welding and fit frame for RSV4 tail
+ paint the frame, engine to black,
Honda tensioners are faulty)

issues at the begining:
- KOSO DB01 speedometer backlight not work
- fuel level is not displayed on KOSO DB01.
- motorcycle jerk at 5000 RPMs and at 7000 RMS(generally feel that there is a lack of power in the mid and high range RPMs)(carbs right now, mj:175&178, pj:45&45, ps: 2 and 1/2, standard airbox and airfilter)
- leaking front suspension
plans, mods, upgrades:
+ MT-03 head lights mod
+ K&N filter
+ carb tuning for 2in1 exhaust
+ front suspension leaks repair
+ welding the new subframe adjusting the RSV4 tail
+ fender change, spoiler change, painting
+ brake stainless hoses
