My next project is a GSXR750 road racer, after that maybe I'll try a stuntbike or chopper!!

OOps, it's all down hill from now :lol: . Looks like you have been infected with MOD bug :wink: .


Me like it very much :thumbsup: .

Any chance of a front view of the head light. Price as well if you don't mind.
All that is left now is for you to spend a couple of hours cleaning the downpies :P

Cheers

Been slowly modding cars for years now. My first wasn't that stock either!! But when you start with

Then the sky (or rear light as I found out doing a wheelie) is the limit!!

I'll post a link up here later tonight which has more up to date pics.

Just out of interest, where are those headlights from?

Ter 17-07-06 12:52 PM

headlights are some aftermarket streetfighter jobbies...

Got them off ebay, look and work really well!

Lights are incredibly bright!

Nice looking bike - with all those extras I am guessing £2300 would be a good price :)

Pity there isnt much you can do with all that wiring beneath the headlight - it kind of spoils the look from the front...

Ter 17-07-06 02:32 PM

Wiring?

Watch this space...

I'll maybe tuck it into a Red bull can or something equally as tacky!! :wink:

Actually I think I am referring to the pictures with the lights on which I am guessing are a work in progress as this...

looks much better! Sorry! :oops:

Yep, that's really nice. It was the amount of attention-to-detail work an all-black bike needs that put me off doing that, but you've made it look magic. Preferred it with the round headlight though :)

So, did you build that up from a frame and spares, rather than strippign and rebuilding a whole bike?

Ter 27-07-06 12:28 PM

Well I had a faired 'donor' bike and thought I'd wake it up a little bit.

I've never had a naked bike so thought I'd give it a go and then I got a bit carried away, like I said above - it was going to be a cheap runaround stunt bike...

As for the headlight, I know what you mean. I thought about keeping it stock, but then I got an idea in my head...

Problem I had was that most streetfighter style bike either hav one big round headlight or two small ones, wanted to stick out so I bought the 'beautfully ugly, but astonishingly efficient' headlight.

Looks great at night with just the circular halo on, Halogen light are incrediblt bright when it comes to lighting up the road too!!

Don't really want to sell it now...

Must figure out a way to tell the misuss.. :roll:
