My progress! :)
My progress! :)
Okay so when I joined you gits sometime last year I was estatic on my 92 1k
I lost second gear...surprise.. and she was eating wayyy too much oil so I figured okay well 1040 kit and 6 spd right? No couldn't stop... I picked up yzf750 cams an yzf1000 crank and some other goodies... well the motors not done yet just waiting on my machinist to finishing the barrells BUT!
I decided let's do some other work... some powder... okay.. well I give you this:
New brakes
Waiting for my swingarm to get braced ATM. I decided to swap out for a yzf750 and the bracing will ressemble a 750 kit swingarm and be powdercoated gold.
... I needed more gold so I added this as well :X
Hope you guys enjoy so far.. I hope to be breaking her in hard within the next few weeks..
Cheers

the Painters buckets are only temp lol I can't use my rear stand till I have this damn swingarm back...

Yes Yes I know, I said, I'm building a project YZF1070
Basement is done now, 850 finished and gone...
Gotta get the new siding up on the house.
Fixing the FZ1 up, cleaning up garage and then I might even begin

Thanks guys! Should have the motor assembled next Monday... then its time to drop her in and then just wait on the swinger and öhlins to be rebuilt.. I can't wait to hear her.. I'll take a video of her maiden start up..
Michael, I hope you get your baby done this year with all the WCB bullshit you're going through.. I look forward to seeing it all done too
Next mods over next winter are FI conversion, SSSA, custom tail, and 07+ R1 forks.

The Gold n' black are also what I had in mind so don't think I'm copy catting when you see mine as aside from my rear wheel also being Gold, mine will likely be 'xact same. Blue, Yellow/Gold/BlacknWhite will be my fairing colours.

Would have liked to have seen some pics of the completed project. It was looking real nice.
