Obligatory "G'day" thread.

I've recently acquired a bit of a bargain in a 96 GSXR 750 (for the princely sum of $850), and I've always had the desire to build a fighter of some sort.

I'm moderately mechanically retarded, but can generally tell which end of the spanner to hold, looking forward to lurking a lot, learning a lot and hopefully over the next few months, turning out my first little fighter project.

Looking forward to getting involved and learning a lot from you folks.

Cheers,
-Cam.

I understand they are not the exact models but anything can be acheived.

How's that for a start?

Perfect base mate. What sort of style do you like or want to head towards? i.e, got a photo of a bike you really like and want to base yours on?

Nothing really in mind, I'm probably generally a "less is more" kind of guy. I really do like what NINJAINOZ has done with his ZX7. That style of headlight really works for me.

Cheers all.

No progress at all so far... the bike is in pieces in my shed, sadly my spare time is mostly occupied between now and new years, but I'll get some time to turn spanners on it over the summer.
