Glued some foam pipe insulation to the top of the stands to protect the rear sets. The glue was quite strong smelling......MAN!!! So keep your work shop well vented.

Started to undo the bolts to drop the shock, then thought it might be a good idea to take a photo so I remember how it goes back together.
I wish my woman was as dirty as that!
So anyway, the shock is out and needs a bit of doing up, and the next thing to go is the swing arm. [8D]
nice build you have there mate.
the only thing i'd say to you is
be very careful with the Regulator
as it needs cold air hitting it
or the will blow.
blade's are a bitch for this.
had it happen to me and it also happen to a mate
after they were moved.
rgds
Guy I work with makes a kit he sells on ebay that comprises of a P.C. fan and a few other little bits that help wick the heat from the regulator. I had it fitted to my original sub-frame and its going back on. I did think about the heat from the engin in the position its in but I think its far enough back not to be a problem, (Famous last words)lol.
Good spot though matey.
Come to think of it Matey, the gap in my frame above my rearset I could fit one of the ram air pipes off a Yamaha or Suzuki.
Food for thought Fightermc, and I like it!!!
Hmmmmmm...............Scratchy chin. You got me going now Matey!
i also made an earth wire and put it
from the back of it to the battery.
So what are those rear sets off mate?
charging along mate!!!
i'd fit a scoop rather than a fan anyday, the less electrics the better if you ask me
that zorst looks like its come together VERY nicely
great work!
Rev the fucker!!!!!
its called wheet-bix here mate and its half the size of wheetabix, go figurequote:Originally posted by CBRRRT
I then got a wheetabix box and cut out a template trimming it a little at a time.
anyway just thought i'd say great project, its coming along nicely and will be sweet when its finished
Thanks lads,
The rear sets came of ebay, they were a best offer price of £99.00 about $213.00 but I had to pay another £33.00 P.P. and £26.00 Customs inport tax.
I like the idea of a scoop and I think I will be going with a scoop off some kind of ram air system.
My Baffles arrived yesterday so I will be posting a few how to do photos of my zorst makeover soon.
Thanks for taking an interest lads.
If anyone on here is interested in rebaffling their R1 zorst then follow the link to ebay below. I had a chat with the guy on the phone yesterday and he said he sends lots of them to Oz.

Dont forget to hit the youtube link on his page, its quite cool.
hi mate,i would have to agree with fighter mc,the rectifers are dodgy,i went through 10 of them.If i was u i would get the electrexworld replacement and junk the origional.......www.electrexworld.co.uk
Top tip Griff, I'm on it.
Thanks Mate.
Anyway I am having a bit of trouble finding the right socket to undo the swing arm nut, so I'll come back to it when I get hold of one.
I thought this weekend I would have a go at ripping out the guts from my zorst.
Hmmmmm Baffeling
I guess the first thing to put on my bench would be some protection
No, not that kind of protection!!!
Something to prevent your zorst from getting scratched during the [u]Operation</u>.
