Just finished a CBR1000RR fighter

[EXBEN]

Nick dropped down his CBR & said he loves the bike but his 55 yr old body can't handle the riding position, he also said he likes the bodywork & paint on Stu's(Vipers) blade.

So we set about stripping it down to it's bare essentials....

Then we powdercoated the swingarm, linkage, rearsets, & lower triple clamp to match the frame colour.
We also anodised the forks Black.

Then we also decided to add one of Deano's clutch cover inserts.

nearly done but the ugly hole in the frame needed to be sorted out...

So we came up with these carbon side covers to tie in with the rest of the carbon on the bike,the left one covers the fuses & regulator/ rectumfier,& has a vent for airflow.....

& the right one covers the relocated radiator cap.

The pics don't do the paint any favors, it looks much better in the flesh.

[EXBEN]

This gives you a better idea of the paint effect

[FIGHTERMC]

Fooking excellent Ben.

[Pab13]

Looks great Ben as usual.


I have a question for you will those wheels (carbon fiber) fit my busa, just trying to work out the fighter build.

[Stocky]

Nice

I didn't realise the radiator on those was so big.

I think I might have to get some dimensions to see if I can use one for a little project.

Any chance it's still there and you can tell me the size ?

Thanks

They are to suit a CBR 1000RR but you could modify them to fit.
you'd have to use cbr brakes, probably wouldn't be worth it unless you can modify them yourself. RRP is $5350 but for this one this set is $3500

Sorry it's gone.

[Pab13]

No worries Ben to much messing around thanks anyway.

[Hillsy]

Hey Ben - did you run with the standard ignition switch or go remote? (I thought the Hondas had an anti-tamper ignition switch....thingy....)

[EXBEN]

Yeah it's got a remote. Not to tricky, just a bit extra wiring.;)

[Watto]

Nice work Ben [8D]

[zx12argh]

No it can't easily be done cause the cable release is on the outside on your bike.

[TurboKat]

As always Ben, sweet work mate. [:p]
The custom carbon shrouds are a standout on that bike, really well proportioned & integrated with the lines. Trick as fuck. [8D]

[Vcook]

holy f-ing awesome.
