had a small smoke signal when i was lifting the bike to put the forks on, my boy was putting bricks under the frame side by side for me, + terminal was off however i managed to press my fat gut against an earth wire onto the + terminal, murphy's law feels like 1/2 of it was for me.

hey dingo, I still have the plates drawn up in AutoCad. if you shoot me through your email then i can email them through to you. Do you have a copy of cad so you can alter them? If not i can shoot a copy to you express post if you are interested. Let me know.

dingo
20-03-2009, 08:58 AM
cheers for the offer OD, just gunna throw some long plates on there and go from there, give me room for future thoughts.
not entiely sure how im gunna finish it off, got a few ideas but no doubt i will change my mind 1/2 way through and start again
so a multi-hole mount will be the go. not sure how that will look in the end but hey, its a street hack not a showie.:D

Harry
22-03-2009, 08:18 PM
hey dingo....thats look'in ok mate,dont worry bout the hack not show pony dude we all do wat we can with wat we got mate..the forks look like there polish'in up well mate,get the tail sused and a squirt of paint on the motor and it will look hot :) all fighters are show bike's mate,reguardless of turbo's or nickle plateing....wat ever. it's in the building and yours is look'in fine,mine took years...chip at it mate she'll be a hottie and they don't make those motor's anymore,you have a classic :)

dingo
22-03-2009, 08:53 PM
Cheers Harry, once i get it all together how i want it i will rip it appart again and give it a pretty up, i got a turbo sitting in the shed but i will learn to ride it first,lol plus it sounds way too expensive for me to do,would love to do it just for the experience though.

been havin a play with mounts, simple way to get it all lined up(slack way)cut and drilled the plates together then bolted em to the airbox/battery mount, just a queery guy's , you think 6mm plate will be enough to hang a subby off? me @86kg and wifey @68kg? , i got pillion rego otherwise i rekon it would be ok.

sitting on the carpet inside in the air-con rewiring the loom, too bloody hot outside in the carport, still deciding if i do a low mount exhaust or angle it the same as the tail, i got some old 62mm pipe off the 4X4 to run to the can, but i think that may be a bit loud, performance is not an issue at the mo.

Looks heaps and plenty good, make sure you get a tune done when you change the pipe....
I reckon you should go for the under slung can, i dig them and it keeps the weight down low too...

sitting on the carpet inside in the air-con rewiring the loom, too bloody hot outside in the carport, still deciding if i do a low mount exhaust or angle it the same as the tail, i got some old 62mm pipe off the 4X4 to run to the can, but i think that may be a bit loud, performance is not an issue at the mo.

wat carl, r u gonna fetch the exhaust from ur toyota? [:0][:0][:0]

sick, man!!! but then, a snorkel too, so u can cross ur pioneer river wherever u wanna, fisho! ;)

[:p]

the exhaust is the old one from the turbo system befor i put the V6 in it,aprarantly they have given me 3 months to pay the rego on the 4x4 so i may be able to keep that rego'd yet.
without the 4x4 on the road the GSXR may just get 1 or 2 trips across a dry salt pan to my other fishing spot ;)
the cams arent actually oversize or anything, they are out of a similar breed of bike ,spose to be the same with a little more lift,let you know how that one goes, they should be here today or early next week:)
oh how life would be so much better if i could bring it inside[:p]

Surt- HEHE, they should make one size fits all 4cyl bikes, just different lift and duration, make life a lot easier for all :)
finish off the wiring tomorro, bit easier than playing with ECU's;), should be having my first ride on my new bike next week[:p]

sounds good harry[:p], was thinking of getting another project to do properly but i just havnt the space. thought hard about that slabbie but the coin is not there, im gunna gather the rest of my bits n bobs n paint before i start to freshen this up otherwise i spend weeks waiting for the parts i need to proceed, would rather spend weeks building and painting with all i need at hand, might even look into a small kit shed, this carport is the fukn pitts i tell ya:(
