This is my new bike, calling it project dinosaur. Got a few plans for the old girl finally going to fit my vfr swingarm to something. Fitting a bandit 1200 frontend yet to be donated by rod. Bike already has a big bore kit. But I'll be going a bit bigger, if anyone has parts to suit the old girl I might be interested. So let me know,

Going to fit the vfr swingarm on that I bought for my zed a few years ago. Rods bandit front end is going to be donated. A big bore kit is on the card some new paint. Then what ever else I can do when funds allow.

Finally started work on the old dinosaur, and had it running first hit of the starter. It hasn't been running for over nine years.

Some pics of the new carbs, we put the swingarm of the bandit in just to see how easy it would be to fit up. I will still be fitting the vfr swingarm.
