So I was in an accident back in may that Broke both hips, pelvic bone, shoulder blade, jaw bone, eye socket, and fractured my skull 4 times, but it did more to my bike then me. I have been working on rebuilding the bike since I got out of the hospital/rehab and I thought I would post some pictures to see what anyone thinks of it so far. she is not done yet but sure is getting close! let me know on what you like or dont like.

Here is how the bike looked before the accident, shes a 2005 CBR 1000rr



Heres a couple of what was left of the bike when I picked it up from the impound yard when I finaly got out of the hospital






and then a couple pictures of where she is now, I cant wait to finish!




The list of items I have replaced:
-Front wheel
-tripple tree
-steering stem
-front forks
-emu
-Clutch and Brake handles
-Shifter
-Radiator
-Sub wiring harness
-headlight assembly
-Gauge Cluster
-Full fearing kit
-Front turn signals
-Front brake master cylinder
-Master clutch cylinder
-and many more odds/ends


anyone have any input on what else they would add/change or check?

 

looks like those idiots form impound lot dont know how to use a kick stand[:@], at least you got your shoes back
looking good, always loved the white and black

 

ya the impound yard didnt care at all about my bike, but even when I got the bike home it didnt stay upright very easily due to the rim smashed, steering stem bent, triple tree shattered. I like the white/black just because it is something a little different but not to crazy

 

I really like the white and black. Like you said, something different but not crazy. Looks really good.

 

I know all about resurrecting a sportbike...congratulations to the fullest! Great to see it.

 

I really like the black and white.

 

I like the black/white combo to but just to anyone who is thinking about ordering fearing kits from china/japan, I hope you are confident with tools cause they are not perfect and it takes some re drilling to fit it properly but its way worth it!

 

Hey it looks awesome! I feel your pain, I was hit by a SUV going through an intersection last August. My bike was written off though which is why I have the 08 CBR1000rr. I love it!
What hit you or what did you hit?

Take care

 

nice rebuild, I guess you were not wearing your helmet or your eye would at least be better. Glad your alive though!

 

I was going through a light that was green for me but there was a guy driving a Toyota Tundra illegally driving and he didnt stop at his red light he just rushed out into my lane and slammed on his brakes so he would be able to turn into a Carls Jr drive through for a burger. He got deported back to Mexico before my insurance company could do a thing, so this has been a Long expensive year!
