lookin good mate :)

[Arron_01r1]

if you look close you can see the 12mm alloy back plates, drilled out the clipon bolt holes to fit the riser bolts about 13.5mm and milled the back of the clamp flat for the backplates to sit nice and true, at the time of picture the bike was running, http://www.streetfighters.com.au/forum/upload/76873834375647.jpg

Going from clip on bars always does that :D - its a fucking awesome feeling, turns me into such a tool.
That r1 is going to be a weapon mate - i reckon they make great fighters - and you dont have to go looking for the obligatory R1 tail piece to stick on your bike - it came with one ;) You've just got to jack that arse up a bit.

[Fight_fan]

Nah fuck it, smack a gixxer tail on it just to be different! Still jack it up tho!

[hyofighter]

he was talking of cutting the back of it as its twisted after the stack and putting on a gixxer o3 tail or something .

[Fight_fan]

Gix '07 tail would look wicked!

[hyofighter]

finished and ridable today , thought it turned out pretty good

Would you like me to design some radiator shrouds for it? I'm going to glass-up some for my own in a few weeks.

Actually, that could be difficult cause I need a donor bike to measure and mark. Unless someone in Sydney has the same model etc.

looks good, few questions where did you end up getting you raiser's for your bars from... not really to sure where the good places to source all these parts from are..
cheers mate

[ozkat]

[hyofighter]

hey lowlife arrons used the risers that he got with the pro taper bars and just machined up some thick alloy plates to mount them through on the standard clamp

[hyofighter]

Nice ride Scotty. Love the pics.

[Fight_fan]

Thats come up lookin pretty wicked mate! Nice work!

[Arron_01r1]

a very casual ride to work on friday, resulted in a yellow sticker (defect notice) rear tyre on limit, led indicators, removal of plastics, sharp edges exposed, and ahhhhh front brake pot was cabled tied to handle bars, fair enough, the officer asked if i knew how fast i was going, i said with confidence 110 mr plod, he replied 108 son, this got me thinking....... i wasnt doing anything wrong, dose the law target us as riders when there is only one? or was i just keeping the numbers up in his book, either way, ive got a major hate on for traffic enforcement,

[Lucas]

Excellent.

Nothing like a fuckwit uniform wearing monkey to ruin you otherwise ok day!!!

what state are you in?

tyre is probably a fair enough. however i am sceptical as to whether no fairings is a defect? if your headlight and indicators are E marked, you should theoretically not be defected. front brake shouldn't really be a defect either i don't think.

yes riders do get targeted unfairly (not doing anything wrong), no not only when by themselves and not only when riding modified bikes.

i may be wrong on some or all of these and someone please enlighten me as to why if i am.

[Bear]

I agree with ^^
The tyre and brake pot should be the only defects. I's reckon the cop has no idea and was bluffing you.

[hyofighter]

just checked those indicators and there e marked anyhow plus there not LED that cop dont know shit , removal of plastics WTF so if i take off a rear spoiler off an SS commodore is it defect worthy ??? meanwhile he is wasting his time giving you a sticker some little old lady is getting bashed for her pension [V]

[zx12argh]

it'l be a defect on the indicators if they flash too fast - sharp bits exposed - maybe...
most coppers don't have a clue.

I had a bike cop pull me over a few weeks a go cause I was standing while riding my dirt bike. He tried to tell me that I was not in control of the vehicle before he let me go - i just stared at him... didn't want to argue in case he noticed the lack of rego label, side stand, indicators and rear guard - and the number plate bent like a horse shoe bolted horizontally to the guard... ;)
