First off , About 3 weeks ago i was looking around for a good used bike didn't care what kind as long as it ran good I seen a few one was a yzf 600 took it 4 a ride wouldn't go into 2nd a few time . a 636 kaw didn't feel right to me so seen on C.L. a 99 cbr f4 11000 for 2800 pics looked good the guy lived 2 hrs away so i talked to him a few time and got him down to 2300. He had it 3 or 4 years sat in a shed 4 2 or 3 years and rod it 3 times this past summer, so it needed some TLC..

Ok first off the back brake was almost dead (pads) there were no turn sing.. on the front at all the grips were shot and some nuts and bolts were mia ,the seat was dry rotted and bot foot shifter the tips are bent in a tiny tiny bit- the tires were mint he had a k&n air filter new in a box for it so here is the pick of the bike

 

Got in a few small thing today im still waiting 4 the rest to come in by next week. I really didn't like the sound from the two brothers ( i wanted it deep and loud ) so i ordered a moto gp and a D&D I got the moto gp in today no d&d the gp is sick heck for $60. of eb@@ cant beat it that if u want it loud , and i got the new grips in there nice $20. off the above site 12 times better then the stock ones that were on it .

Ill post as i get the parts in.. Thanks 4 looking

 

it takes time to do a bike up cause generaly its expensive for parts but your right we do have ebay thank god lol

 

Yah I'm always on there looking they just put a cowl on there for the f4-f4i don't look to bad its going 4 i think 130...i might glass one up this winter still thinking ,might just do a sub frame swap wit the f4i don't know yet

 

b, you're doing a good job w/ rehabbing your bike. Its lookin' good. I'll bet that motogp exhaust is loud. ;-)

When you get ready to do the split-seat conversion, check out my tutorial. If you need any help, just let me know.

 

I like the in depth tutorial on your split seat set up nice bike are u keeping it that yellow color?

 

Well UPS dropped off some more goody's today the bar ends ($10. eb@@)and rear brake and gear shift levers($37. eb@@) and the front brake switch ($9. DK)ill get some more pics latter. Want the dang seat cover to get here all ready.+ had to order new front turn singles AGAIN just put them on a week or two ago. for some reason the plastic on the front part melted the bulb is not close to it so must of haven't had anyway for the heat to get out dont know..

 

Thank you. I appreciate that. I hope it helps others wanting to do the same. For now, the bike is still sunrise-yellow w/ the silver tail. Although, I very quickly installed a CompetitionWerkes fender eliminator & led signals.

Back when I did the conversion, I was going to paint the tail either the same sunrise-yellow (factory paint from Colorite) or black. The tail cowl was in such pristine condition though, I couldn't bring myself to do it. Then, I got a complement about my bike at a gas station from a lady in an early yellow & silver Hummer...saying 'they looked like they belonged together'. I have to admit, in the late afternoon sunlight, they did appear to match. So, its still the same in the tutorial pics except for now having the fender eliminator.

I have an extra tail cowl that I've been meaning to sand down & paint. Maybe one of these days, I'll actually get around to doing that.

 

Didn't you get her number?

 

You should have takin her for a ride
