After purchasing the below 92 GSXR750 recently off ebay with the plan to turn it into a track bike. The motor was blown but i have a spare to slot straight in.
Since then I have decided to use the frame from this bike as the basis for my current 7/11 fighter.
the current 7/11 frame will then be built up with the running gear from the below bike to form my track bike.
Sounds like you're go'n to be busy Deano.
"It's the eighties and I'm down with the ladies"
this is the frame after stripping and degreasing.
If weight lost equals horse power gained then this is the most powerful bike around[8D]
Hey Deano, Amazing... when I pulled mine apart the other day, there was no kitchen sink!
How come you're swapping frames?
my current road bike frame was in a accident once and am not sure on its straightness therefore i will eventually get it checked and straightned if nesseccary. can afford to be without a track bike for longer than a road bike.
and i am sick of polishing.
And the award for not fucking around goes to ............... Deano !
Mate, you stripped that thing quicker than ........ um ....... quicker than ......... something that got stripped really quick. [)]
Now to strip the 'Fighter & do the transmogrification, shouldn't take more than a couple of weeks, It's all just bolt ups eh?
Any Victorian ASF members NOT planning to do trackdays with us this year are SCARED []

1 to go
managed to fix the ding in the swingarm last night.

All that work, and I see you still haven't made a proper exhuast hanger yet.
"It's the eighties and I'm down with the ladies"
Nah, he just sanded back the polished part of his frame and claimed it was the new one.
wiring loom that came out of the bike
the cut down loom that has just enough to run the engine and thats about all.
big difference
errr Deano,theres a dirty cigi butt on your floor
Nah Davo thats just a second CIGIi Unit. [
What, no starter motor, tail + brake light, or kill switch? are you going to bump start it? Be a pain getting a good tune-up wouldn't it?
I'm just curious Deano[^]......don't know that much about circuit racing, or the regs for that matter.
'Ken fast work on the streetbike mate!
mate i will be running a total loss ingition. will still have a kill swith on the throttle switch block. the alternator has come off and the hole plugged with a cap. I will be leaving the starter on for a bit until i get it up and running and dynoed. then the starter and all the gears that drive the starter and alt will come out.quote:Originally posted by Benz

and yes i will be bump starting at the track.
Hey Deano,
Excluding the very valid reason of "because I can/want to", why go for the bump start option?
I understand that you'll be saving some weight but will it really make that much difference?
I am not trying to be a smartarse, just curious.
