Man you got a fat arse .. That tail looks huge .. Do you think you'll have any problems with you tail light and no.plate mount .. i thought that the plate had to be seen from 45° in each direction and that you had to have a mud guard thingywhats ..
Other than that its great , colour is [^][:p]fancy pants

[lewis]

Nah no rego drama's, it won't even visit a workshop ;) Not what you know.....

[damo1]

Im with latheboy that tail needs to go on a diet its looking way to long for my liking just my 2c which means fuck all to your build.

As for regs on whats legal

*the plate must be visable from 25mtrs away and from a 45dgree angle from both sides of the bike and also the center.

Love the paint though very different

[lewis]

thanks, I know the tail is too long, but i built it that way so when i get my gregs 3" extended single sided 240 it will look the shit ;) nah im building a new tube style subframe to shorten everything up. It looks pretty neat and will take my seat with a small ducktail im making myself, but it could be another month or two before its complete.

REGO!!!! Finally, it passed no worries, but he didn't pick my taillight or number plate mount, but did tell me to move my front indicators??

[Watto]

nice mate - I take it your indicators were down near the radiator in the 4th pic - speed triples have them mounted off the radiator as standard but anyhow the bike looks good :D

[Hillsy]

Nice one Lewis - he must have been a mate if he only picked you on the indicators ;)

Looking good!

[lewis]

He did notice the front tyre is "race only", the pipe "wasnt on there" etc. ;)

[fimpBIKES]

FUCK ME, where do i find rego people like that?!?!?!

i can pick all kinds of fails on the bike DAMMIT

u all suck [XX(]

[lewis]

LMFAO! Dude rock up wit a cold carton of piss strapped on the back and see what happens! He even put the new engine number in as a 600cc so the RTA couldn't pick me on having a 750 in it :D

I have started on my tail. I cut a good 100mm off it and have to re-join the end to the mid section. Going to need alot of fibre fill [:p]

Once the rear end is sorted I want to swap the forks out for the 750 ones and the 6 pot calipers. Also going to an exhaust shop this week to get the can kicked up a bit. Rode it out of town today on a little road just out of town, 12klm of 35 - 55kp/h corners linked with short straights. I couldnt believe how much of an improvement the 750 made over the 600! 2nd gear out of the corners, flick the clutch and ride 2nd on the rear wheel to limiter, just makes that bit more power and has alot more tourque

[Cruisecontrol]

Massive improvement.

Well done that man. :D

[BANDITROD]

thats a huge improvement mate give ya self a pat on the back cheers

[zx12argh]

Top work mate - someone said the same thing about my 12r - work on the tail is still going [:p]
