dont bother, heaps easier to do the i4 and be a sheep like everyone else [:P]



seriously though, the tiller is a right bitch to make look tidy naked
there is all kind of shit hangin' off inside the fairing

still, i say
if it feels good DO IT :D

Which bike do you prefer to ride? Which bike is your baby? Which bike would you keep forever and have it as a one off? That's your answer.

well im doing the tiller, most of the billet parts i got can still be used so thats a good start, plus while i was painting it a few weeks ago i noticed it has a heap of tabs and stuff broken off the fairings, so it really needed newies anyway.

just ripped some stuff off it now.

i godda agree with fimp the R1 would be easier to fighter and it would be a shame to rip the tl apart but hey whats it matter wat anyone thinks if that what u want do it. fimp needs the competition anyway!!

fucking hell thats tiny!

good shit :D

to be honest shame to see the tl go naked, but judging by the previous mos, you'll make the naked version just as good as the covered one.

cheers.joe.

chopdiesel, good choise with the TL.

It has been said before, R1's like assholes- everyone's got one...

I hope you get rid off the TLR seat unit as well.



C'mon Fimp! Get into it!

dont worry its soooo out the door, thinking of bolting a complete k1 1000 rear unit on, subframe bolts straight on and actually kicks it up in the air a bit.

either that or highly modding the stock subframe and making my own tail peice.

chopiesel there was a guy in adelaide called Replico who was doing the tl/gsxr tail conversion and was cheap as too? i know he did sell some of his molds etc to a mob in sydney i think they where called Dirty Dog or something like that anyway?
