Finally a fu@#ing roller!
Its been years, lost all intrest in her a couple of years ago, started turning her into an Outlaw bike but lost the Drag bug, she lay in pieces in my shed for ages, i couldnt even look at her, in fact, i thought about giving her away!
I have owned this EF since 1990, back in the day she was 100% standard, except for a 1200 Kit and a Head tickle by HRE.
She has had a few different guises, at one stage she was the fastest and quickest A/SB in South Aust (2003/4), but she has always been a good looking tough Streeter.

Now: Engine, 1428 built by Trevor Birrel (going in next week), Dyna 2000, Mikuni RS40mm Flatslides, K7 front and rear rims,(how did that 6 inch rim and 200 tyre get fitted into that S/Arm and still look standard?), Standard (braced S/Arm),K5/1000 rear Caliper and carrier, Under pillion oil cooler,
K2 1000 front end, Woodcraft Clipons with Carbon Handlebars, pro Stock Exhaust with Arrows Carbon Muffler etc.

Anyways......the story as of tonight.
Although not a "traditional streetfighter", im thinking you chappo's would like to see her thus far? :)

never fear chaps, the flames are going, they are part of the "old bike"

Dash pod is standard EF apart from what you see below, i junked all the crap out of her years ago and ended up with what you see here, it really has all you need, Tacho, Oil Temp and Shifty Light. :)

Bandit, for sure i am!

In my case, i love the lines of the EF, and it would be criminal, (in my eyes), to change them!
So this is why i have kept the original headlight, Inst Cluster box, and Bodywork.

Ive done enough to her so that people come up to me and say "what the fuck is that?", then there are those who know what she is and compliment the ol gurl! :)
Ive parked EFFIE in her old guises in between the latest and greatest Sportsbikes, only to have people walk past the new bikes and check mine out and discuss her for minutes on end.
I love her! (can i say that?) ;)
