Howdy folks, was referred to the site through the UK forum, heres a few pics of my bike.

Have a set of 155mm dogbones which raises the tail nicely. Will be starting a tail mod soon and paint. I want to do something like this...
Image

I think the tail is off an RGV but i'm not too sure. Airtech makes a kit that i'm also gonna be looking into, made for a GSXR-750, here that is.

I was originally thinkin of doin an r1 2 seater swap but am leaning towards a single seater. And again, hello to all the new faces, lookin forward to participating and getting some input on my ideas, always like to hear peoples opinions.

Cheers

Ck :)

Welcome to the site CK, and that's a nice clean lookin' bike you got too. Keep us updated on the tail swap. A tail swap is on my list of "to do's" also. :cool

Welcome to this great site.
But I have to ask. Please dont take this the wrong way as I have the exact same bike as you..
But why would you want to make a classic FZR1000 look like something its not. I do respect you wanting to change things, but that 92 model looks very clean, straight, & unmolested, it seems a shame to change a nice well cared for FZR.
In my opinion only,, I would have started with a rough 1000 & gone to town on that.
Again welcome..

Well i guess i think that the rear end is just a bit chunky for my taste... just needs an update. Kinda cool to have a unique bike too.

Cheers

Hey Ck,
Pretty sure the tail in that pic is ealier duck stuff.

The swingarm I'm sure is off of some sort of honda. I've now obtained a VFR swinger for that same conversion myself, although my tail end is coming from an 04 R1.

Hey ozzy

Yea i been a bit slack in the tail department... Big dreams... But, on the other hand i have made quite a number of other modifications. Will need to take some updated photos.

The tail is next though... honestly
