[hyofighter]

A mate had a 94 viffer.... good bike until he started to ride it hard then it all ended in tears when he hit some bumps which the suspension didn't like. Your Hyo probably handles a lot better.

Seen pics of one hereabouts and I think the frame was a bit average

Hi Scott like your idea about something different if you havent already seen their site check out www.Lazareth.com they have a few different ideas that they have done includibg one with a mazda v6 engine should be a few of them around Australia

The radiators make for a hassle on those bikes if I remember. Look what you have to work with:

Never had much to do with them, Just remember Rocket Ron and
Fred Merkel racing, they seemed to go OK in their day.
One of the bikes that won at Donnington didn't have any race kit,
It came off the showroom floor at the Motorcycle Mart in Kidderminster
just a day or two before. I think it even raced with indicators etc.

As Si said...
Expect the usual Radiator, wiring, relays, plumbing,
ugly brakets and mess hidden under most fairing.
Not major engineering just lots of head scratching.

Believe it or not it's a supercharger, and yes it is a VFR800 but I'm pretty sure the set up is almost identical: http://thekneeslider.com/archives/2007/10/11/supercharged-honda-vfr800/

Wow ummm id do something about that belt but the rest is pretty cool ....... for a 'onda that is :D

to bad all the cool euro sites dont have a word of english on there

[the hooligan]

ive had a 97 and 00 vfr and plan on making one a fighter in the future. i love the v4s just not a big fan of the vfr frame. that guy with the supercharged vfr lives about an hour from me. his vfr is sick. his kit cost 5500 dollars though, thats alot of cash, you can piece together a turbo kit cheaper than that.

Hyo, I have a 1994 model, it's stock (ATM...). Rides great. I reckon it would fighter real well, only a small front mount rad to deal with... Maybe like this?

[hyofighter]

russ m8 is that the black one you were trying to sell on here , if so its the exact model im planning on getting , but just got to get mine back and sell it , heavy bike standard are they ? have seen one with its clothes off and it look reasonably slim
