Hi,

Everyone else seems to have one so I figured I would do my own

Here is the bike when I bought it, in a bit of a sorry state. But I bought it to learn about it and fix!



Update! This is the look I am aiming for once finished, just to give you guys an idea of what's going on in my head.





What's been done:

New Silencer (OEM)
New Clutch and break levers PO bent them
New seat
New discs and pads
New chain and sprocket
Replace front brake master cylinder

Left to do:
F4i front end conversion lights and gauges
Split seat conversion
Clean Carbs
A general clean up
New steering head bearing's
RFID ignition because it's just to cool not to have!

It's going to take time but I will keep this thread updated with piccys and such when I get my new parts on Payday and finally sorted out my new shop!

Hope you enjoy the read

Tris

 

very cool project and ideas that you have! it will be interesting to watch it evolve.

 

OMFG, that poor bike... how'd it end in that condition fella? Such a shame, I'm hoping you put this thing in tip top condition, we'll be waiting

 

Both previous seriously neglected her and she sat for a year. So far I have her road legal again, set me back about 400. I'm still not happy ;-)

 

wow... that poor girl looks like she was rode hard and not even put away.. will be looking forward to future updates!

 

I really look forward to seeing your bring this bike back to life.

If you need any help w/ the split-seat conversion, see my tutorial...& feel free to contact me if you need additional help.

 

Well it's payday tomorrow, I have just paid my first months rent on my new workshop. Just getting new tools and stuff for that now, will keep you guys updated. Pics of the workshop to come!

 

Hey guys!

Jess and I have finally completed the move to the shop

Pics are to follow but so far the front brake master cylinder has been changed and the chain has finally been riveted on.

Next job carbs off and cleaned

 

Sorry I havn't had the time to get pics (sometimes I hate night work!)

Just waiting on the F4i front stay brackets to arrive and my new paddock stand.

EDIT: Ordered the F4i Gauges aswell now

 

Was just looking at your bike (prompted after the PM's) & saw the paint work in your orig post. That looks really good.

BTW, how is cost of parts w/ shipping to your location?
