For now, just send the photos to me and I'll upload them for you. Just let me know what the topic is as I get a lot sent to me. send them to webmaster AT streetfighters DOT com DOT au

Tidy build.

Welcome

[Chrispybacon]

Its an absolute hoot to ride now. Loves getting the front end skyward. I think i trimmed approx 10kg off as part of the build.

[JimZXR]

Will have to weigh my fighter as I hadn’t considered weight savings! Cheers!

nice bandit crispy...

[Chrispybacon]

Cheers geesexar. Need a coupla bits painted still but its getting there

[LKC73]

Looks tidy Chrispy, do you plan to take passengers? If not, ditch the rear footpegs and clean it up that touch more.

[Gix11]

That's cool. Nice work mate.

Nice work mate. I'm about to restart work on my '05 after a long time off.

[Chrispybacon]
