AFR 2010 Project bike.

[sharky]

Picked this up today...I need something to ride until my 1300 is done.
And I just so happen to have all the bits missing sitting on the shelf [^]

[-Dex-]

Sweet!

[Hillsy]

Nice one - I saw that on Gumtree, too ;)

WTF is going on with that fairing [xx(]

[Seifer]

Keep that headlight fairing on. Awesome!

[Weaselman]

i say panniers big leg protectors and reflective tape all over the place

[sharky]

Fairing is going.
The guy said 'I have to get rid of it...the caravan park want to evict me'......so I didn't have to haggle to hard [}:)]

[Gsxar]

Be interesting to see how it looks soon Sharky :DBooster should be getting onto you about the swing arm, someone else he knows might need it.

[sharky]

Cheers Jo. Got about 95% of the bike (and most of the missing in 'stock').
Gonna arrange a roady on the zxr250 tomoro and then get stuck in.

At the end of play today she looks like this....

Used the stock XJR footpegs and brackets. The slab top yoke that was on the XJR just needed the holes sleeving down from 43-41mm.
XJR risers. Got a ducati muffle rthat will be modified to fit, blanking off one side of the collector box.
Got a GSX1100 headlight unit.
Just need a 6" trailer fender to complete the back, keeping the stock front plastic undertray (just like me and mates used to do in the old days)
Just need something to replace the huge speedo/rev counter unit.
Any one got an old pair of GSXR clocks and bracket ??

[thepj]

wow that was quick

[sharky]

The joys of being unemployed mate.....
Had a dig in the garage...totally forgot that Gibbo had sent me both Z1000 & Z750 fairings. And thanks to Suxifreak I had a second headlight unit (same one fits both). The stock headlight/clock bracket can now by put into service and the fairing is big enough to hide the stock clocks.

The most expensive thing will be tyres...both wheels are 16" [V]

The fj shock was solid so the unsold cbr600 one was modded and fitted...works ok on the hardest setting.
Only trouble is it has a piggy back reservoir so the battery needs a new home..but I have a plan.
Decided against using the Z fairing that goes with the headlight...gonna make something myself to go above the light.
And I lurve underbody car spray...the rough matt black stuff...looks grouse
;)

[Shadowzone]

Fucken hell Sharky 10days and you've done the job.

Top marks. It has come up a treat too..

[rock hard]

gettin there mate

[sharky]

Headlights will now be FZR thou.
And the same seller has done me an R6 rear wheel with new disc for $100.
Just need to change the bearings to suit the FJ axle.
A new tyre (16" wheel) was over $200...I have a spare 17x180 thats good to go....
