Love ya work mate, My No 1 Dream fighter is an 03 R1. One day.................One day

[clairebear]

i'm liking all but the headlight.
sorry Stocky!
me being the expert of course, built hundreds of the things!
did you lower the footpeg sets?
how comfy / good handling is it?

[03gixxerpilot]

as i said befor great work mate i know how much effort is involved, its not only the effort but thought into how and where to hide wiring, rerout cables, hoses etc.

Who is running yamaha and suzuki now, it been a while since i lived in gladstone.

[Stocky]

The headlight is up a bit at the moment until we sort a steering damper. Then we'll try and get it down a bit lower.
The bike shop is Rob's baby now that Cyril has retired.

The foot pegs are stock position, pretty comfy (needs some seat foam moved and it'll be awesome) handling is ok but it's a bit flappy and the front wheel goes skyward at a hint of throttle LOL.

[BOHEMION]

How do you mean flappy mate?

[Razorback]

Looking good man!

This is a project I have wanted to do for a while. A few mates and I disagree with some who say it's not a streetfighter because it has renthals and no fairings. The bike has had a lot of thought go into it to get it to this stage. Check out the triple clamps that Greig from MPE made for it, they are a one of (who can find the pinch bolts).
Its a bike that as a daily rider has more then enough power to have fun on weekends and is comfy to go long distances on. The other thing we did because it was brand new is we made everything reversable so for resale if it doesnt sell and people think its been crashed I can pull the new fairings out of the cuboard and she will look new again.

[03gixxerpilot]

nice tripple clamp !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fimpBIKES]

wow, thats a sweet clamp

i see no pinch bolts :(

[03gixxerpilot]

no slots for it to clamp and no hole for the stem yet oviously not finished but goin to be very very nice when finished

[Stocky]

That's the trick. It is finished. It's on the bike.

There are no visible bolts or slots

[Alucard]

that is so hot. If I get an 04/05 r1 I am doing that to it

[03gixxerpilot]

thats one very tasty piece of enginering

[gibbo]

So how's it work mate?

[Gix11]

Yea, what Gibbo asked......

[Stocky]

If you look hard in the pic above of the parts before they were fitted you can see in the background an "inner" plate that clamps to the forks, then it bolts to the "outer" bit you can see.

The head stem is upside down and has a castle nut with a locking setup on it on the underside of the tripples.

I'll see if I can get some pics of it

This is what the sub clamps started out as.

[gibbo]

[WANABFAST]

[03gixxerpilot]

mate that is very clever and well thought out. its great when uguly detail is hidden to give clean smooth lines.
well done :)

[Stocky]

Greig at MPE was very keen to make something different.

He's a real petrol head that loves what he does.

[03gixxerpilot]

How much to get one made

[WANABFAST]

BEST TO CALL GREIG A GET A PRICE

[Bucko]

Nice work man. Nice and easy on the eye.
I reckon half the joy of owning a fighter (they used to call bikes customised in this fashion we all enjoy choppers!!!) is that it is all yours. Even if it looks the same as bobs or daves it is allways going to be different than two stock bikes parked side by side.

Any dick can go buy an R1 and do stoppies and wheelies, it takes balls to start f%$ing with it.

Do it some more I say.
