Default Ben, Albury NSW Australia '01 F4i(and my other bike:P)

g'day, all, just wanted to say hi, recently bought a beat up '01 F4i, that i am making a semi naked, i cut the side plastics off, fitted polished alloy crash *****, polished the rim edges,repaired the tail,upper front, and little side fairings, have a set of home made under body led stripps fitted, a new ART carbon fibre slip on pipe( sounds bloody horn). cleaned up and matt blacked the exhaust headers, took an aluminium rasp to the scratched stator cover and polished smooth(am a fitter and turner by trade).

am fitting a cbf600 hornet belly pan, and gsxr1000('02) 6pot calipers, with goodridge lines to the front, and am replaceing the poo orange LED's in the dash to high output green leds... when i can find another dash(dont want to accidently kill my good dash).

in the near future am doing a valve clearance reshim,new plugs,K&N filter, and PCIII if i can find one used cheap, also need to replace the the speedo sensor, my speedo keeps going to zero when i am rideing it!!!!... and have to switch the kill switch on and off to get it back....have to that down to a fine art on the move..:P.

the bike also came with a carbon 'look' hugger(yuk) which is going to be repainted, and a tinted DB screen, which i am going to cut down cos i think it looks like a alien from the front.

and the other is my 77 CB750 F1... that i have restored...

ride safe and be well...peace
