New guy from US

[whitey]

Hello ya'll been a lurker for quite a while and feel I atleast should say hi. Lots of nice bikes and inspiration here.
I will post up some pics hopefully tomorrow but currently I am building a watercool GSXR 7/11, still in the early stages of it, getting engine sorted and back together after replacing transmission, done, just waiting on some bolts to get case torqued down. While waiting been cleaning and polishing parts and frame.

Last build was a '94 Thundercat, now my sons daily ride, rebuilt engine and updated brakes and suspension and gave her a CBR tail swap. Nothing up to the standards of most of the stuff here but a tough durable little bike, being it has survived my 20 year old sons abuse for the last year, lol.


And my daily ride is a pretty much stock '05 Z1000, hopefully I will get my lazy butt up before work and use my home computer and be able to post my junk up for finger pointing and laughing. ;)

LOL, hell, I think my fingers are around 80gr right now, no pulling on the pud for a while.
I am in Florida, very south east of the US. There are very few in my area, a friend of mine has an 08 CBR1000 stripped down and tuned pretty good, another friend building an old FZR 600 kinda bobber Mad Max deal, and a girl with an old F2 she is building. Most of the people I ride with are on cookie cutters.

Are my pics not showing up, I loaded em from my work computer and its all anti spy crap, I only see about half the pics on here.

Then I got this

And combined them after replacing the 1100 transmission, checking main bearings and valve clearances

This should work, not on my gooberment controled work comp.

Well they worked this time!

Still got the original clock mount bracket pointing out the front of the frame. Was wondering what it was in the first photo. Thought you had some crazy offset stem going on or something. Coming together nicely mate.

LOL, the bracket will come off, Been using it as a handle till she's up on wheels, getting heavy.

What tail end you sticking on mate?

[whitey]

I am making a cafe racer type tail, really wanting something different from the other 2 bikes and I was actually looking for a '70s era air cooled bike to make a cafe bike out of but got this and parts started popping up pretty easily. A little under weather today so just got my foam sheets cut to size and should start carving out the tail in a few days.

Something similar to this
