94 Restoration
Great Job there, so glad you had the stuff and determination to finish it. Very original, maybe in the future you would consider getting rid of the heavy old twin cans and hardware, will save you about 30 lbs. or more. I think you would like the sound and looks of the Vance & Hines 4 into 1 SS2R setup I have one on my 95, only my opinion, again great job!!!!

Thanks Gary!!! Was VERY determined to finish that project! Took 4 months. I was actually disappointed with the sound that came out of the SS2R hence the drilled holes... In hindsight It probably sounds a whole lot better live that on Youtube, just MHO. Unfortunately I was "taken out" in a hit and run! Guy never stopped!!! Bike is ruined! AND don't have the heart to fix it... NOW. With that said I've moved on to the next "Beast!" CBR1100XX! OMG!! What a monster compared to the 1000F! (2000 EFI, 30K) Will post pics soon! Yet again will do a MAJOR 100% COSMETIC MAKEOVER on the Blackbird that promises to be SWEET!!! Stay tuned!!

Hello fellow fighter pilots! Just a side note. I have no mechanical background as such. However use to be a Mechanical/Civil Engineering draftsmen and also immensely enjoyed R/C airplanes since I was teen(Was also in Air Cadets and later became an Officer...). So working with model planes wrapping them with paper or monoque plastic,detailing etc. Playing with small engines such as ***, O.S. max and other small 49cc engines... I also do carpentry work. So years of this has all come together for both my ol CBR10000F94 and now The New Monster projects. "CBR1100XX 00' 100% Cosmetic makeover... BEFORE!"
