hi everybody,

Just got my first sport bike last night, 1988 cbr1000. Got it in trade for some bodywork and paint on a gsxr600. I'm just wondering what kind of mods I can do to this bike to make it look like a new bike. I think the first thing I would like to do is find an aliminum frame that would fit to make it a little lighter. Can anybody help me figure out what frame would work? Thanx.
