Ok so I'm sure some of you guys know, I crashed my F4i HARD on 8-5-11, here is the details https://cbrforum.com/forum/off-topic...t-down-129214/

So far I have removed the upper and lowers, what was left of them. have got a new headlight, put a new clutch cable and levers on it. Tucked all the wiring in under the tank, and shaved the harness down to remove all unused wires.

here is where I am at right now, but atleast it IS rideable again

Still waiting on my new gauges to come in, as you can see the screen is broke on mine from the crash, also still waiting for new clip-ons, and hoping to get cage ordered next week, then she will be ready for some paint (body and frame) So alot more to come....

I read a goosebumps book about a killer car when I was a child I wonder if there's any connection?

OMG I feel old.. someone didnt get the Christine reference? Are you living under a rock or are you like 18? :P

All kidding aside... it actually doesnt look bad.. nice to bring her back.. I assume you are doing okay?

It's difficult to make a street fighter looks like a true street fighter, rather than just a bike that crashed.


In for updates.

I'm really going for more of a stunt bike build, as thats what I really spend most of my time doing, I've gotten to beat up over the years from the go fast type bikes and blasting the twistes, I'm more into finding a big empty parking lot and giving it hell... but I do still want it to be streetable.

Also I'm looking into getting an r6 tail and putting it on there. I have found most of the piece's for it.
