Well project B12 is on hold for now, reason being I went and bought myself an 2000 R1, this use to be new ASF member Flukyluke's steed, so with the sale of the Street Triple and my puppie rottie on the mend i decided to spend the change on the r1 and begin another project...
Sheds getting a little crowded now, need to put trailer outside but dogs keep eating wiring till so she stay inside till i can work out a gate, bandits still in progress, The motard seems to be gathering a little dust, now all my attention will be on the R1..
Shopping List has begun... purchased these last night.. Obligatory Bike Manual, New Stator Cover I was going to go bling but decided on OEM for now maybe paint or polish later, and seen as though the pillion pegs will be going bye bye, I picked up a exhaust bracket..
Nice.
Mate Mark "Lucky" from Brissy had naked R1,
Always looked good fun.
Fuck yeah! Very clean mate. Will be n awesome bit of fun!
Go Gitzy
So you bought it mate. Good luck with it. She'll be fun to ride
Cheers guys.. Went for a spin last night, smiles all round, lotsa mumbo in my book..
Lucky you took a picture of that bike manual I would never have known what you were talking about otherwise, are you one of those people who point at their wrist when they ask for the time?
Si vis pacem, para bellum
congrad's gitzy,but i still want to see that bandit done mate
Jacktar you clown [)].. and nope i usually point at other peoples wrist and ask the time.. i'm picture happy what can i say..

Cheers..
Did ya get the black 03 forks? need to see pics of ya work and pick ya brains in the future for ideas... I'm just about to chuck a pic of my new ride on, it's as I got it. Cheers bud.
I thought i'd have a crack at maybe making my own headlight, seen as though all the headlights i'd consider buying from various places around the world are priced from $450 to $700, I was considering trying to make a mould and having a crash course in fibre glassing.. so to kick things off i spent a whopping $35 at office works on 2kgs of white plasticine and some shaping tools.. bear in mind I HAVE NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE.. so this is my first attempt.. comments welcome..
I'll have to go get some headlights from supercheap or autobarn and remake the whole unit on the front of the bike, for size reference and so on..
this was just a trial run to see if i was any good at shaping plastacine...
Na not yet mate, there in transit though I believe.. easy change.. axle and front fender and job done.. sweet I be keepin an eye on your project progress too remember lots of piccies..quote:Originally posted by Flukyluke
