I had just sold my 94 vfr750 and decided to get this as a winter project. I picked this bike up off of a friend who had wrecked it about 7 years back. He had it sitting in his garage since. After some carb cleaning this thing fired right up. Since it was not in road condition I just took it for a quick ride up the road and fell in love. The power is insane especially compared to my vfr and I have always loved the look of these bikes. Since everything needed repaired I decided to stray away from the stock form and go custom. I really loved the single sided swingarm on the vfr so I knew I wanted that. I was trying to decide on a tail section. I was thinking R1 and when I started doing some searching I ran into CBRRRT's 900 on here and that sealed the deal.
After some cleaning I realised that this bike wasn't in that bad of shape and started my local and ebay shopping to locate the parts I wanted. I am trying to see how little money I can spend on this project and make it look like a million bucks. So far so good. It has been a couple months and It is coming together nicely. Here are some Pics and I will keep posting the progress here. Thanks for looking and can't wait to here your comments.

This was the mock up of the tail section.

 

Swingarm is off of a 94 vfr750. It has a vfr800 wheel and hub.

 

Mock up of the rear fender that I put together. I never liked the fenders that they make for the vfr because it always has the chain guard built into. So I figured out a better way.

 

I am mounting up a 2006 R1 front fender. A couple bracket and it fits really well.

 

I decided to weld the subframe to the main frame instead of making brackets. I figured there really isn't any reason to take it off and this makes it look really clean. I made a bracket out of aluminum for the rear tire hugger and had it welded to the swingarm. You can also see that I cut down the stock R1 pipes. I think they flow better with the tail section this way. I also used the stock guts to make some baffles for the pipes. Can't wait to see what they sound like.

 

SWEET!!! Can't wait to see the finished product!

 

Hey Jeff, thats looking the dogs bollocks mate. Love the **** end view buddy. Are you gonna mod the tank where it meets the R1 seat plastic fella.

Mine is in this months Streetfighters mag, if you can get hold of a copy check it out buddy.

 

I forgot to include a pic of the seat. I was able to heat the back of the seat up with a heat gun and mold the seat right around the tank. That was how I got it to fit so snug. I couldn't believe how well it came out. I haven't decided whether or not I am going to fill those areas in. I am going to get a copy of that CBRRRT. Can't wait to see it.

 

Fit of the seat against the tank.
