Hi guys, i only just found out about this forum a few days ago and thought id pop by and say hi. I'm builidng an 06 ZX10 streetfighter and am up to the point of swapping the OEM swinger for a SSSA. I just need the new suspension to rock up so i can get it to an engineer and start the swap! Anyways this is how the bike currently sits. There is still alot of work left to go...

There is always "a lot of work left to go"

I don't think a fighter is ever finished its always evolving.

North or South?

Welcome mate, you had me at ZX10...

Do you have any more pics of the bike? Are you doing most of the work yourself?

These pics were taken prior to getting alot of stuff powdercoated (fork upper and lower triples, bar clamps & engine covers).
I'm 25% the way through fitting the Koso DB-02R gauges.
Once my Hagon shock arrives I need to get everything to an engineer to help fit the MV swinger. I CANT WAIT till that goes on. Its gonna look awesome!
The only stuff ive outsourced so far has been getting the wiring sorted for the headlight and fighter tail (indicators etc..but the cnuts charged me like a wounded bull!), headers were ceramic coated by CIC in Welshpool, powdercoating stuff through Perth Powdercoaters. Everything else (99%) has been done by myself :D

Looking good mate, I like it. Where did you get the tail from?

By the way glad you saw the light and joined, PSB are OK but you will get plenty of ideas from like minded Fighterers!

Its off ebay and is an Aprilia RSV4 tail. Its in ok condition but is a little bit tweaked underneath where the undertray would go so i have to fibreglass a new section to fix it. That should be interesting seeing as Ive never glassed anything before :confused: practise makes perfect tho!
