The Turtle slowly marches in..hurrah..hurrah

[The Turtle]

Morning Gents and Gentettes,

I'm a Turtle from Ashfield, Sydney. I was coaxed here by a friend of mine and now you're stuck with me.
I don't take up much room, and quite easily survive on Mother and sausage rolls.

Here's my bike. Yes it's a *censored*, but it's mine and it was cheap, and I do things and stuff to it. Yuy!

Started life as a 2010 GT650, and the changes so far include:

- Belly pan
- Oxford Hot Grips
- Clip-ons from a GTR
- Ferodo HH brake pads
- DIY hackjob tail tidy
- ZX6R Yoshi RS3 slip on
- Dropped a tooth on front
- Renthal Quad-Stake chain
- Braided lines front & back
- Bandit 1200 shock conversion
- Replaced Reg/Rec, Stator, Water Pump
- Stomp grip tank pads & tank protector
- Adjustable rear sets taken from a GTR
- K&N High Flow air filter from a 90's car cut to shape
- Top Triple from a GTR which required some grinding and stuff to allow the dash to attach

Welcome aboard mate. A Trooper Lu sale?

Thanks mate.

I bought a set of Rosso II's from Lu's last week. You work there?

EDIT: Nvm, just saw you are on the GC

[Gix11]

Nah, I just know Justin the owner.

[Yella]

welcome. The more I see them the more I like the tail, can you get a single seat cover for them

[safighter]

when i had one i found korider.com was a good forum and place to get parts for hyos ,sorry about mentioning another forum,on here.

Yeah I found a way to change out the rear shock without any grinding or modifying so I posted up a thingy over there. Got a few people doing it now too.

As for the tail, I love it. There are a couple rear seat cowls around but they all look like ratshit. Thinking I might have to make my own.

Welcome to the nut house mate.
Nothing wrong a gt650 . Nothing right either lol but ok bike for being LAMS legal.

[The Turtle]

Ah she goes well for what she is. Just need to look after them well. The reg/rec dies every 5-6 months though guaranteed. Ive had the bike 14 months and im on my third reg.

I've got a K4 Gixxer 600 track bike to even out the right/wrong balance.

welcome mate
