Well I haven't had second gear in my bike since mid last summer. I bought a motor off of eBay, had a bent crank when it showed up but the trans was still good.

So I tore down the donor motor.



Started the tear down on my bike.





Got a the trans parts swapped over and I thought I might as well make the motor look pretty while it was out.





Even powder coated the oil pan.



Poor old naked girl. Haha



And she's all back together! It's nice having all my gears working again. Hah

 

Nice, I like the color offset from the black.

 

Love the coloring, nice job.

 

That looks awesome.. Love the 600rr swing arm too. Any pics with the side fairings on?
I'd get some gold levers on there too...

 

 

Wow. Nice work. How difficult a job was that and how long did it take you to complete the trans swap?

 

It wasn't too hard. The worst part was getting the motor out of the bike.

Start to finish it took me 4 days, but I only worked on it 2-3 hours each day after work.
