Or how to stop changing your mind .
Any advice guys ?
Was forced to take a 4 day break by the Boss. (young fella's take care of ya back). Well I started thinking, bad thing for me not much exp at it, and decided 17" laced wheels would be cool so manage to get what I want (I'm sure The Wreckers are in league with the mind controlling Aliens).Rear's no problem, change me mind on which front hub to use but that's now sorted.
Now I'm starting to think again, musta lost my meds, and I'm thinking alot of stuffing around to get the Suzuki gear into the Honda frame. So now more thinking (now this is bad, the thinking bit), would it be a Good Thing to start with a GSX frame and adapt the Honda tank,side panels and seat to the GSX frame.
*)No stuffing around swapping stems (hopefully) and boring top clamps.
*)Swingarm is from a GSX so that seems like a no brainer.
*)GSXR --> GSX frame is well documented (dunno about those CAD drawings on oldskool some reckon they aint quite right)
*)Maybe easier to rego cos of 1100 in a 1100 rather than a 1100 in a 900.
*)In essence I was only really after the look of the CB.
Any opinions ?
Am I copping out or making a sensible decision ?
I may have a lead on GSX frame but am open to offers :)
