Default Sidewards' F2 streetfighter evolves

I bought this 93 CBR F2 from a friend last year for $300 after he wrecked it. I converted it to a streetfighter and road it until winter. Got some wild ideas and followed through on them, much to the dismay of my riding season. It will be, if I don't hit any hang ups, rideable tomorrow. Hopefully some of you will be inspired to customize a little beyond fender eliminators, flushmounts and undertails.

Some tinkering to make it streetable:

Why is it so high? Looks like a dirt bike. Is it that much lighter?

So I can clear logs and trail debris.

No, I wanted to shorten the rake on the bike for better turn in. If it shakes too much at speed then I'll put a lowering link in. It is about a little less than 2" higher.

Hey, what swing arm? 600rr? Could you measure the length of how far or how much shorter the swing arm is from the stock? Looks sick.

about 1 3/4" longer. Weighs exactly the same as the stocker with all the suspension bits. ~ Two inches wider at the front. Much wider in the rear, that is a 900rr rear wheel and 180 tire.

very nice like the dual headlights and the all black frame and motor, what mirrors are you going to use if you are going to get any? you going to get a new kickstand?

More pics from today. Up and running. Took it for a test ride. I was suprised that the 1000rr shock didn't beat my kidneys out, it actually rode pretty nice.
