well this alll started 2 years ago when my buddy traded a paintball gun for an 87 hurricane that had been wrecked in the front end but had a clear title.
He didnt have a place to store so I said he could keep it in my garge, after that day I knew I would eventually end up owning it.
I helped him tear it apart, he bought new forks and plastic. then he just gave up, the kid had no money and not even a car drivers license.
Well I had a flat black 85 jetta gli that I bought for 200 and used for a year to get back and forth to college. he jumped on the idea of trrading the jetta for the cbr, so I said sure and it was mine .
I had at this point a 1984 honda ascot vt500 that was in really nice shape and was a good commuter but jut a little to plain for me(which I finally just sold I think?)
Well let me start with what I have done...

Got the front end all together
Found one bent disc(!?) bought new/used ones ebay for $20!
took off the gauge cluster and got an old speedo from an old kawi that works perfect even has a light
relocated the key to the left side of the frame
both pegs were missing so I made some of my own out of railroad spikes(Iwill try to get a close up pick later) and yes they still fold!
for the head I found that headlight mounts that go around the forktube from an old parts bike fit perfectly! then added a 8in housing headlight made for a harley but was on my dads blown up cb450 cafe
chopped down the yoshi exhaust about 6inches
added sweet old skool turn signals from and old parts bike
specail edition st pattys day bud light bottle/can for my coolant overflow
custom plastic fender? insert under the seat
and my favorite part was the taillights, I had found them on an old boat trailer a while ago and knew they would great on something, so I went and welded a mount that screwed to underneath the passenger seat then I sprayed the tank, rear subframe,and rear splash guard flat black
new clutch cable
bar end mirrors which arent on yet

 

good start to a fighter, but the first pic is in the wrong section. The Thong/Cleveage showdown is in the off topic forum LOL!

 

hahah yeh i know I promise that my next pics will have less crack in them!

 

lol I was gonna say something about that.

 

well I took some better pics today...
and I got this one from wayyyyyyy back when i was makin a fiberglass seat... which i stopped making bc I HATE FIBERGLASS






my pegs...

 

Looks real good. Mine is very similiar but for now I am leaving the upper on it. I will eventually switch to a round solo light and go completely naked on the front too. I think these bikes make awesome looking ratbike/fighters.

 

dude, wtf is that a peg? Looks like a kickstand or a chisel. LOL!

 

its a railroad spike

 

hey i am new here and i saw your bike while searching for ideas and i love it i wanna do kinda the same thing you did hope you don't mind. i'm in nj so i don't think anyone will know. lol i was just curious what did you do about all of the wiring on your bike the fuse box and all of those connectors in front? thanks any other info about what you did to strip your bike down to give it the look would be greatly appreciated.

 

Now that is a fighter!!!!! Savage
