Lookin' good. Nice to see it coming together.

 

that is a great transformation man!

Just curious, what did you pick the bike up for? and about how much did it cost you to fix up to the point it is at in those pictures?

like yoru color choice a lot

 

Thanks Gotcbr! I appreciate it.

I actually bought it from a guy in Atlanta Ga for 1400 bucks. I had to get a key made, new foot pegs, fairings, front tire, headlights, paint, grips, chain, sprocket, stator cover, air box, clip ons, new fluids, oil and air filters (K&N) for around 1700 bucks. Runs like a dream.

 

I just traded her. She was definitely a beauty, but I'll post the pictures of the final project. She definitely was my pride and joy :').

Last month


Before I traded
















Definitely brought a tear to my eye hearing her drive off one last time.

 

What did you trade her for?!?!?! That was a pretty bike.

 

Thats what I am wondering...

 

Traded for what... And why did you trade? After all that work

 

Say whaaat???

You must have gotten an offer you couldn't refuse. ;-)

 

Well, in the beginning, when I got my first street bike, I told myself that I was going to work my way up in bikes, buying, modifying, and selling (or trading) to make a little extra cash. Im on my third one now, and this CBR was the perfect example of what I'm doing. I traded her for a 2000 Suzuki TL1000R with 500 cash in hand . I have an appointment in 2 weeks to paint her Lambo orange, and then sell. It's a cycle.

My new project, which doesn't really need much.

 

So your flipping bikes then. That's a good idea. Well your work looks great man. Keep us posted on all your projects
