GSXR 1k rear caliper
Kat 600 4.5x17
custom Roundball wheel spacers(if ya remember sasha....you been here way to long)

Sorta looks like my new creation.

[werase643]

SWEET, got new crash bars off of flea-bay!!!!

[werase643]

geee
I wonder why.....the forks fit nice, NO?

I might get you on the bling factor.....

[dgyver]

Looks like they fit up good. From what I can see, you ground the stop the same as I did.

Yeah you have me on the rearsets....not the Ohlins, got one too.

What motor are you using?

[werase643]

stock with some blinged up stock carbs....
exhaust is V&H or big friggin secret
headlight  will be initially an old GS1100 8 incher....BRIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

already did the top shock mount and 99 GSXR stock shock...

Dude, that banana is hot.

I am really looking forward to see how this turns out. Do you plan on using the old style or new style bodywork?

Are those Woodcraft rearsets, and are those slicks you are running?

[werase643]

no, them are YOSH rearsets......if ya gunna go kewl...GO HELLA KEWL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nope b-stones race compounds with tread....090 or 96's...havn't looked lately

[l3uddha]

lookin good. what'd you do to "bling" up the stock carbs?? chrome? 

[WREX]

swing arm is the shitznit, upsidedownies are sweet, yosh rears are sexay, ohlins - forget about it....man it's all gonna be sweet.  i'm really looking forward to watching it unfold too.

[dgyver]

Stilll want the un-cut rear fender?

I was slack and just sent the seat hardware yesterday.

[l3uddha]

you have gotten me very excited....

[werase643]

lookin good. what'd you do to "bling" up the stock carbs?? chrome? 

close.... polished them up....it the important areas......

[werase643]

D,
it depends on if the secret tail light will fit with the stock fender.....sell it, if ya get a buyer....i'll  find one if / when i want one

I might stri it down tonight and start prepping the frame for paint

I friggin love anthracite wheel paint!!!!!

[Happytrack44]

You gonna use carbon fiber zip-straps to hold it together?

[werase643]

Happyturd,
you really need to get a friggin life
go suck eggs



you coming to dinner on thurs? 



I guess I have a yellow tank to go with the other bits.....

[ducati_nolan]

Looks pretty awesome  Though with all that work the rear subframe looks a little out of place. A chopped down subframe with a solo seat would look pretty sweet. Or you could cut it iff and weld tabs to bolt on a nice looking one from a sportbike  Just some ideas.

Whatever you do, you're wel on your way to a badass bike. 
In fact it may be worth looking for a more powerfull engine to shoehorn in there. Maybe a newer 600cc superspoert engine, A Vtwin might fit better, wonder if you could get a 1000cc twin in there, RC51, TL, SV, etc.

Okay I'm carried away now, I've got to shut up 

[werase643]

whoever here suppied the yellar tank....THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!

and the new crash bars showed up

[Turd Ferguson]

Looks great!.  How about a few new photos of your progress?  I'm getting all excited over here...

-T.

[werase643]

I refused to touch it til the tax paperwork was finished....
I finished the numbers on sunday
Monday night....I prepped the frame for paint,  I ended up wiping the frame down with carb cleaner and removed all the bad rattle can paint

then I painted it with good rattle can paint

tonight I cleaned up some parts and started to assemble some parts....together.

pics to follow, soon
