Hey guys, I have the chance to buy a 1995 CBR900RR in real nice shape with only 9,500 miles for cheap. I just wanted to get an idea of what can be done with these bikes. Post up any and all CBR900RR's. Thanks

Do a net search. The cbr900 is one of the most popular fighter bases there is, along with gixxers. I found it fairly easy to convert as well as there is heaps of room under the tank for electrics and the coolant resevoir is in the rear of the bike.
Do it.
Do It Do It Do It!!!!
This is mine so far, pics are too big to try to load again. Far from finished tho:

These two are a good start........
I bought a Honda once and my mates wouldn't ride with me.*
The numbers really add up for a streetfightered 900RRRRRRR though
*It used to stop running a lot
have a look at www.STREETFIGHTERS.NL it might give you some ideas.
i have my bandit 1200 up for sale and am buying another blade
to fighter as i think they look the dogs as a streetfighter
i sold one a couple of months ago and i wish i hadn't.
Thanks guys.. I'm gonna buy it. Can any of you guys explain to me how to shorten the tail section like the ones in the photos. Is it just a matter of cutting it off and making my own undertail or is there a much better way to do it? Sorry if it's a stupid question but I'm new to streetfighters.

Comes with everything you need.
Man, that's sweet! A little too rich for my blood though. I'd also like to make something myself. I'm just looking for some tips and how to's from guys that have done this so I don't do something stupid.quote:Originally posted by EXBEN

Here she is..
Hey Smokey, Mine started off as an R6 tail unit on the original honda subframe. Subframe got chopped and raised (pull the fairing off, you'll see this is relatively easy) then I hacked into the R6 plastic, raising and shortening it. Teach yourself to plastic weld... which means lots of quality time with your soldering iron and melting plastic. Then crack out a tin a bog.
Thanks for your help. I can plastic weld but I'm not very good at welding any type of metal. I have a few friends that I can get to help me though.. I'm gonna give it hell and see what I can do. I'll post up some pics once I get started. So far, I just stripped her down and listed the plastics on e-bay.quote:Originally posted by dane_ra

The frame and swing arm were powder coated by the previous owner. It was one of my main reasons for buying this bike. It will save me alot of work..
Keep the pics coming smokey on the work in progress
i'd like to see the way it turns out.
i'll be at the same thing hopefully in the next month
or 2 myself and soon as the bandit gets a new owner.
have a vfr800 swinger and a r1 frontend for it already.

She's under way.. Question for you guys that have fightered a blade, when you remove all the stock gauges, does the fan still kick on for the radiator without the temp gauge? I'm assuming it does but I just wanted to make sure. I will only be running a small aftermarket speedo, nothing else.
Yep.
My 93 Blade has no gauges and the fans still works just fine.
pretty sure the fan is controller by a thermo switch in the radiator itself/
You da man! Thanks.quote:Originally posted by Greeny
