This is my girlfriend Helen's 3WF (3 week 'Fighter) that I threw together for her to ride to the World Supers at the Island a month & a bit back, I thought seeing as most of the Vic crew know her & I bought her to the AFR, I should introduce her bike.
It's largely built from bits I had lying around the workshop with a little misc parts help from my friends.
It's a 1990 <s>Shitheap</s> GSXR 1100 L, it's got 750 SRAD upside downers in smoothed/deseamed Slingshot clamps, Busa front wheel, Gixer thou K1 discs, ZX9R 6 pot calipers, braided stainless lines, SRAD 600 5.5" rear wheel, 1127 with 38mm carbs & pod filters, Megacycle race (big bore headers, individual slip fit pipes all held together with springs) exhaust with a carbon/kevlar weave muffler, custom link pipe in heat wrap because I didn't have time to paint it or even finish the welds proply, drilled top clamp with Fatbars & risers, Acewell dash, custom modified wiring loom by Shano, mini cateye blinkers, relocated ignition switch, single Bates style headlight (Kev copied me ;)), standard tank & tail, TLS front guard, 520 chain conversion @ 15/48, YZF 750 brake master cylinder, ZXR clutch reservoirs for the brake & clutch & probly a couple more bits I've forgotten like the Domino 1/4 turn throttle, the trick ex Hooligan, Extreme Creations brake junction, eliminator bar ends & the reprofiled (lowered) riders seat.
On the future mods list is a flat oil cooler, HPC the exhaust, single seat cowl & a minor re profiling of the tail plastics.
It's maiden voyage to the Island went well, nothing fell off but it needs to go on the dyno ASAP because the fuelling is a fair bit off.

Yeah Gitzy, she's a lucky gal to have a top bloke like me [:o)]
She fucking loves the thing, since I put it together she's spent more time on it that in her car... I've created a monster :D
I'm gunna keep it standardish & 2 seatable in the very rare event I need to pillion her.
A few more bits & bobs & a lick of paint & polish here & there.

They're watercooled Gix handlebar risers Kev, I bored them to 54mm from 50 & drilled & tapped the back of them for an M6 grubscrew, a bit of ally flat with a few holes & you're in bizness.
