Hey guys,
So I have recently taken the interest and initiative to Street Fighter my bike which is a 2010 Yamaha XJ6 Diversion. I got the idea from my friends Hyosung GT650.. which is a complete monster and just gives off a kickass vibe.
I have been posting around the past few days seeking general advice and opinions for the build, and have received some amazing support and feedback from multiple members. I would like to give a HUGE thank you and shout out to: CruiseControl
So with this build i have assigned multiple stages and a budget for each set stage. As each stage progresses i will post build and technical updates as well as pictures, dilemmas and success.

Titled: LAMS in Wolfs Clothing
Motorcycle: 2010 Yamaha XJ6 Diversion (600cc Inline 4 LAMS Approved)
Current Stage: #1
Current Budget: $3000.00
STAGE #1:
-Front End Conversion; 2006 R6 Upside Down Forks - Including Calipers, Clamps etc.
-Front and Rear Spiegler Braided Brake Lines(Gold)
-Valter Moto Type 2.5 Adjustable Rearsets (Gold)
-Custom modified Belly Pan from 2010 Kawasaki Z750
-Street Fighter Headlight /w Phantom 4 Mask & 2x H8 Bulbs
-Reposition Instrument Cluster & remove fairing stay
-Flat Black Paint
** R6 Steering Stem does not fit inside the XJ6 frame and will require machining.
** Top Yoke modification required as the XJ6 is 23mm and the R6 is 27mm
** Custom Bearings need to be made by spec TOP: 30x47x12, BOTTOM: 31x55x18
STAGE #2:
-2004 Honda CBR1000 Tail End Conversion

-Rework Exhaust Components
-FZ6 Cam + Timing Upgrade
-Power Commander + Dyno Tune
STAGE #3:
-Single Side Swingarm Conversion
-Holeshot Contrast Cut Rear Wheel by RC Components
-Further engine modifications
Aspects of the build may change over time, but the general concept will remain the same. A streetable, practical yet aggressive and head turning 'Street Fighter' styled motorcycle to be used on a daily basis.
Any work is planned to be carried out by myself and several friends, However should anything be out of reach for our current skill sets all required work will be carried out by Mark Tudor of Mark Tudor Motorcycles based in Seven Hills, Sydney.
Going to have all machining and extreme custom work done by Extreme Creations based in Sydney.
Look forward to receiving feedback, hearing opinions and even suggestions as to the direction and progress of the build.
Thanks
