Gsxar- written off - Now - Turbo & updated

[Gsxar]

As a lot of you know I or have guessed :D I recently brought myself a Gsxr 1000 - 2005, repairable right off. Another gix in the family. I have had a few different plans since I got it in all the excitement.
I found out who the local viv inspector was, and paid him a visit to check out what I need to do.
I have pretty much all the parts now, but think I will wait to register it till I get the fairings.
Some of the toys
Gsxr 89 - 1100 Street fighter
Gsxr 89 - 750 Pretty much original apart from paint & pipe
Gsxr 05 - 1000 Hopefully on the road soon
Gsxr 02 -600 track bike
6 Pit/ mini bikes
Quad bike
Cafe racer building with daughter

[Gsxar]

Booster I have most of the stuff & none of the skill lol but how I try :D

Turbo - I told you chicks have to accessorize their tools, Its all bout location location location and being able to locate it;)

That's without mentioning the house which is amazing its self, bad news is I'm only ment to have it 6 months - things change I can only hope I get to keep it ;)

Sorted the mess out a bit more since the pic's have the 3 gix's lined up and the lathe ready to play with,sooooooooo little time.

Time I could have used better this afternoon, with couple hours and needing wood badly - I decided to take my old wagon car down the track in my 40 acre back yard - with my chainsaw that scares shit out of me cause I really dont know how to use it very well:( - decided after cutting a little bit, it would be much easier to drag the tree up ????
Smart idea I hear u say ;) So yeppers u guessed it car is now still down the track littlleeee stuck, but I had a ball............. So all in all if I had sexy hot bodied people to cut my wood I would be in heaven ;)[:p]

A socket set is pretty tempting, but only if ya have all sizes of course ;)[:p]

Yeah well I didnt want to brag Jo, but I also got one of these prongy sockets wot you can take off your swing arm with.

http://www.asfphotos.com/upload/1248322789.gif


Uh-ha, thats right! a prongy socket.

You blew it babe!! :(

Hey KATO! How you doin !!!??? [8D]

[CBRRRT]

Wait a minute............. KATO dont got a big shed with a pub in it :(!!!

Jo, take me back, if my tools not big enough for you there are people I can see, people I can talk to and get help from, people that for a few £££'s have things under the counter that can make me the man of your dreams. Why I was in Halfords the other day and they have sockets like you wouldnt believe, I just need a bit of time to get the money together babe.

Time for update
I have been stuffing around learning to carbon fiber over the last few months, with the hope of making a few bitz & pieces.
After lots of stuff up’s/mind changing/design problems/learning to make moulds, learning to carbon, learning to ruin , moulds… ;)[:p]

I’m starting to see some results that I would actually put on bike. I wanted the radiator shrouds kinda 3D which made it a tad harder.

Yes there as easier ways but this is what happens when I wanna play

I started with clay (messy & cracks) and moved on to , not great with finger nails arhhhh, get one part perfect & ruin another.
Sorry for the crappy pics

Well done Jo, I'll have to come around for lessons on how to fabricate stuff for myself once I start needing custom panels made.

[Gsxar]

Yeah no worries Jup, I'm sure we could create some works of art :D
Hopefully you have more patients than me....... I tend to wanna rush & see the finished product :D:D:D
