Cool streetfighter/stunter conversion from UK

Iv Been a member on this website a while so decided to introduce myself, I ride a 97' CBR 600f3 that I initially bought to turn into a stunt bike but its turned into more of a streetfighter project and has grown on me a lot, even to the point where it is now the best bike iv owned!

Iv converted it completely from stock and after clearance issues, handling issues, wobbly wheel bearing issues and any other issue you can think of... its finally at the point where it handles, runs and rides perfectly! it gets a lot of compliments and attention while I'm out and about so I thought I'd post it

Here she is standard

Since these photos I have removed the decals of the rear panels, fitted front braided lines and i now plan to chop the subframe and convert the rear tail to a 600RR

Let me know what you think! & feel free to ask questions haha

Nice work, Joe!! Usually, I would shudder and gasp at seeing such a sweet example of an original bike being "molested", but I really like what you've done!

Welcome to CBRF! That's a brilliant looking bike - I love the belly pan.

F2/F3 bikes have so much potential when it comes to fighters - great job. I'd love to see the 600rr tail on it. If you're going to continue to modify it - put up a build thread in the SF section.
