    A few updates,

    Repaired all the body work and repainted the top of the tank and all the front fairings.

    New shorter Termi can.

    Fitted my bar end mirrors to clean up the front more , and a few other bits here there and everywhere.

    Righto bit of an up date.

    After Kev got me onto unicorn and a zx9 complete front end it was time for the resto mod to continue.

    The front end was shipped and arrived from vic.

    A quick inspection all seemed fine , I cleaned it up and ripped the triples off for a stem swap with the original gpz unit.

    Off to me trusty mate Exben for this little mod, he also trimmed off the zx9 lock stops and drilled tapped and added bolts and spacers for the new ones.
    A spacer was needed for the top triple as well to space and well and the triple and also take the smaller stem.

    A day later I had the triples back and was ready for action and 4 hrs in the garage.

    The front end slipped in and the body work needed a little trim as a result of the bigger forks and triples.

    last but not least put it all back together and test ride.

    I still need to pull the front wheel and repaint it , and repair and paint the front guard.

    Other then that it was a pretty straight forward swap and a much improved ride and feel to the bike.

    The bike looks tough as.

    Ill get some better images up once I get it outside in the day light.
