THis is my fzr400/600 fighter.... ideas for further mods include an under engine exhaust, and new headlights, new triple clamps, in the very extremely distant future a vfr400 swinger.

Nice - I'd paint the aluminium (sorry aluminum[:p]) section black to blend in with the rest... Maybe trim down the seat a bit too.

Good to see some original thinking going on there.

yeah the seat as has been mentioned is a bit big, off a zx14, i will be getting a smaller one as soon as i find one suitable, as the only one i have lying around is a fzr250 seat. Good idea by zx12 to paint the under section black will get onto that, i call it a fzr400/600 because it is a fzr400 frame with a yzf600 motor shoehorned into it. I dont actually live in Brisbane as i reside in the bayside 30min south of brisbane (with level 2 water restrictions :) )

What has changed:

got rid of dash / headlight setup

got new rear indicators (others were knocked off by someone)

got new tail light (other one fell off at speed)

got new wave headlight $120 delivered

got new trail tech digital dash $150 delivered

Im thinking of biting the bullet and getting some street bars as i've got the clamps welded on (had dirty bars)oh and
some billet bar end mirrors.

Hmmmmm, Capalaba Skate park, perchance?

Capalaba skate park it is, very hard to tell with the shitty photo, or is that shitty photographer??

I live like 5min away so it was an easy location, I also took photos at wellington pt with fisherman's island in the back ground but alas again my photography skills let me down :(

I actually need a new exhaust can or a repack so ill probably shorten, repack and paint at the same time. I really want a stubby like the aftermarket R6 ones but can't find one cheap enough.

The headlight will be replaced by a custom HI LED set up when i finish this semester at uni.

Ok another update, put new exhaust on its a hotbodies R6 exhaust just slipped on which was handy, its now effin' loud, absolutely too loud to be honest so a trip to exhaust proffesionals is in order this week.
