Laughs... no fkn around there - Nice work!
Good work Jules good work.
Well, finally getting off my ass and starting work on the R1. Gonna be a budget build and a slow one. Start working on it and sell a few parts to buy other stuff. Gonna be easier to work on now since I have a car.
This is what I'm starting off with

Very nice matey.
Got home after work yesterday and decided it was time to start. Have been collecting a few parts over time for it.
Twin spots (will replace when have cash) with screen
pro-taper bars
wavy rotors
Still need to buy indicators and mirrors and down the road an alluminium overflow bottle.
Hoping that I'll be able to use stock cables by re-routing them, but we'll see about that later on

So, fairings off, dismantled controls and removed top triple. Took me just over an hour, so i was happy.
Top triple is going to be taken to work to drill out for the risers. Will have to see if I'll need to strengthen it some how then.
Also going to make a bracket for the twin spots today so i can mock it up and have a look at it.
That's gonna look a right animal Jool's, stay focused mate.
Good to see your doing some work on this one again.
I am off to test ride a 98 R1 on sunday as my next addition to the stable.
Who knows, you might inspire me to go all out on it.
Onya Jules! Best get those MX bars on there soon man! Might jst save u, having something to hang onto nxt time u drop the clutch n snick 2nd with a fist full of throttle! LoL

Looking good mate but i reckon the lights need to come up an inch or so to make the fly screen about level with the top of the risers. You also need to move that shiter out of the way to give yourself some room to work.Just get Rabbit to push the clutch less wonder onto the street lol
