looks great! id like to see how you mounted the front plastics, i have all my stuff and am about ready to start converting the front end. i have f4i gauges to finish it off though, so i still need a speedo healer.
also, what did you do to convert the headlights? did you hook up both or just one? i have an idea for mine, just interested in how you went about doing yours.

theres a good 16 hours into it.
the front was the easy part really, the tail end was a pain.
the front was just chopped off at the gauges then a set of flat brackets were weilded. then 2 brackets on the frame on the side. the tail was chopped, then a frame of square bar was built to hold everything up. the corbin seat was hacked all to death underneath then we screwed in a bent peice of flat bar to hook under the tank and then built up some steel bar between the rear mounts and the frame. ill up some pics and it will all be very clear.
lights arent wired yet (didnt need em for the racetrack) but im just gonna get a wiring harness from a rr and splice em.they are only like 45 bux im told.

the back was meh, my rear seat lock is actually functional too. i have an rr upper stay and i plan to mount instead of the f1 stay, i will probably have to create some kind of conversion mounting piece to interface the two. i was also planning to get a rr headlight wiring harness, they can be 30-80 me thinks. pics would be nice.
if you are interested, here is a little more about mine:
