plans for tonight.... chop ignition hole off top triple, give it to buddy for pc

also finish ignition relocation bracket

make a new aluminum cluster/tip sensor mount and test fitment

going to work on some photo shop tonight and see what you guys think about how to chop my lowers, plan for now is to paint them satin black

so look forward to some pics, as well as some photoshopped pics for opinions on choppy the belly pan

so a hour or so later and a lot of dremel disks lol



top tripple has been modified, this is how the cluster will sit when its all done




im working on stripping the paint off the triple, and smoothing the little bumps left, so i can give it to my buddy for some powder coat...

relocation of the ignition didnt go so good tonight, so hopefully tomorrow

but now of to photoshop




what do you guys think about these

before




after

I'm digging the progress. Not sure I'm a fan of that bottom fairing though. I feel like it needs to be bigger for some reason.

yeah I think that will be the best bet. That one reminds me of the bottom fairing on SV's and I just hate those for some reason :P

so didnt do a TON tonight....

it was time for some top triple stripping and smoothing.... i dremeled off all the casting lines... and stipped the previous coating

and gave it to my buddy who is powder coating it for me tonight with the ignition space removed

also decided to pull my front fender i think it look 1000000 times better without it

please keep in mind im a young poor guy haha so everything i fab i have to do by hand, as i have no machines or air equipment



casting marks are gone

my baby girl wanted the camera haha



bye fender
