So I have posted this build on another thread because I didn't know there was a street fighter thread on this site.
Started with a 1990 CBR 1000F. I got the bike from my dad. He was the original owner and technically still is till I get the title changed :icon_dunce: Lots of history with this bike as well as lots of miles. I estimate 100,000. Original engine. Here you can see I stripped the bike and started painting the tank. |

This is where I cleaned up the carbs, obviously needed it from sitting for 8ish years.

Here I strip and paint the frame. I didnt take it all the way down to bare metal. It didn't need that. But there was some rust that I cleaned up, sprayed with self-etching primer, sanded, sprayed with sandable primer, sanded, and then painted with flat black paint... I think it looks really good!

All the way up to this point I tore down and rebuilt the entire bike in my apartment dining room and 10x10 storage unit with no power and only natural light.

Moved into a house. Deleted all of the Cali Smog BS. Did a tail mach up and cut the frame. That was last night. Once I get my new tail section in (2007 R1) I will be able to start the tail build. I will be chopping the exhaust as well. Then all I need to do is build a dash. Hand my head light. Finish the wiring and then tune the carbs. Should be easy ;)
Thoughts and opinions are greatly appreciated. This is my first street bike and my first build BTW. So yes I will actually appreciate the info! The full Build can be found here: 1990 CBR 1000f Hurricane Build - Custom Fighters - Custom Streetfighter Motorcycle Forum I think it will be safe to say I also have some parts left over if anyone is interested send me a PM of what you need and I will let you know what I have. If you cant see it in the pic's I took it off the bike and I am sure I still have it. Thanks for looking |
saw the build on CF, it looks great. make sure to keep us updated. the r1 tail will look sweet!
|
Yeah I cant wait to get it in the mail. I will send some pictures of the tail when I get it in and of course of the progress of the welding of the sub frame.
I really hope this turns out well. |
