Thought I should intro myself.

Ex 250 Bandit and Husky motard rider from Brissy. Want to do a streetfighter now. Checked out a promising ZX9R, which turned out to have a very noisy motor. Booo, there goes that idea.

Now I'm looking to the GSXR1100/750 or Bandit side of things, but I could be open to anything really. Need to find a cheap slut to start things with. Anything around, let me know! Looking for good wreckers/places to buy such a beast in Brisbane also....

Oh and I'll just talk it up - used to race with Chris Vermulen..... in BMX. Quick little fucker, on a totally different level, even at age 10.

All bodywork stripped off, almost finised labelling all wiring connectors and removing loom - new one on it's way. Turns out fire melts looms.

I hate wiring so very, very much.

I'm not too scared of this build strangely. Coming from a car build where there was very little aftermarket available it's not too daunting. Much smaller too! No doubt things will go very pear shaped within a few weeks.

Build thread to come soon.

Body corp has already given notice to clean the car park within 7 days. Fuck em. Though I will concede and remove the piles of furniture etc....

Got so many questions to ask, but wary of flooding the boards with shit.
