Hi gents,
very long time, no-see.

After my ZX12r fighter died, i bought a writte-off '04 Daytona 955i and restored that to full-faired perfection. Anyway, i want another roadbike, a fighter because theyre just cool! But nothing as mental as a ZX12r (600-900cc would be nice).

Looking to spend upto $4k for something and then add / paint / modify it to my taste.

Anyone know of anything going around? Im in Clayton (Melbourne), but im willing to travel a few hundred km's for the right rig.

Cheers, Ben

Is a gsxr 711 too mental?
i've got a mate who has to go back to Denmark, and has a 711 to get rid of, and wants $4K. NSW rego until feb. My old frame, so R1 seat and sub frame, engineering cert for the bigger engine, flatslide carbs, Dyna 2000 ignition,30,000ks since a rebuild. Also comes with my old engine, which had about 25,000 ks since a rebuild with an 1196cc JE big bore. Looks a bit rough with a rattle can black paint job, but goes like a big gixxer should. When he emails me some pics, I'll start a new topic.

Hooligan, the Gix 7/11 is actually my wet-dream favourite oldschool fighter! Id definitly appreciate more info on that, but also if anyone is aware of any cool V-Twins going that would also be good. ELAPID's TRX850 Looks like an interesting starting point, but i wouldn't mind seeing updated pics of it if anyone knows him personally.

Thanks for the consideration blokes, i would love a V-twin as i've never had one and would love to try one out!

Ben :D

Nothing else going out there guys? I've got one potential bike, just wondering of anyone knows of anything else that someone wants to shift?

Photos have been emailed to you now Ben. Lucas(the bloke I got it off) saw the bike about a month ago when he came up for a visit.

morning mate,

I have a bog standard YZF750 just begging to have the fighter treatment drop me a PM and I'll send you some pics.
Good nick low kms and standard.
can't do it myself as I am mid fighter project for a vmax and need some funds to finish the project hence selling the yzf.


v twins are for pussys mate
get a v4 (or a YZF750 with NSW plates :))
regards
Simon
