Mono does fuckin' GREAT prices mate! ...and then he knocks some more off if you're an ASF member. You'd be mental not to go to him. My bike felt like new after he put the new rubber on and balanced it perfectly.

Thanx for the advice man I'll give him a call a drop down to him when i get a chance

Thanx Mono
Looking really sweet!!! you should before you get to far and after the subframe is done have that frame painted as well.
What you planning on doing for rear sets? i hate the bricks that came on mine and want to upgrade to newer model K5 rear sets. so need to have mounting tabs welded on for that. 93 - 95 seems to be the bastard of the GSXR's.
Yup sure is a Bastard for aftermarket off the shelf bits. I dont much like the rearsets either but what else can I do.....this build is already costin too much....sh1t I sound like the Missus....Got to get the controls and new brake hoses fitted now...Have to see how many cables need extending...probably all of them.I have an acewell ace- 2853 digital speedo/tacho ordered with a brushed aluminium pod/surround...still not sure what to do for a light unit..I really wanted a LSL urban/MT03 light unit but they are exy...I have an acerbis twin light unit that may have to do until i get some more funds
Picked this up on the aul E-Gay the other week and arrived 2day ..sweet and noice finish too http://i1153.photobucket.com/albums/...1052012112.jpg http://i1153.photobucket.com/albums/...1052012111.jpg
Coming along nice, top work mate
Gettin there slowly...very slowly
Still havent decided on the rear end Yet. I aint too sure whether to use the Monster seat or i have picked up a ZX6R unit ( bent subbie).
If I get the subbie straightened I am leaning to using the Zx6r unit. hope to get into that soon.
Sick kiddies= not much time in the shed
cheers bob......gettin there slowlyQuote:

Hey has anyone bought a MT-03 headlight thingy from italy off Flea Bay?
I reckon for the price they got to be copies?? but was wonderin if anyone reckons they are any good or just chinese crap?
The price seem ok at around $150 delivered(light only no mounting brackets)
Yea mate I bought one. It arrived in about 5 days and was great quality. Well packaged. I just came with the side brackets and i made brackets and attached to the tripple clamp.
Below is a photo of it installed.
Cheers

Keep up the good work its looking great so far
I like the billet reservoir, Where did you get it from (Ebay link or seller?), I have not seem before, PM sent too
Good stuff, i have a 95 1100 chassis and a few spares that i think will turn them selves into a half decent fighter........ if i ever pull my finger out.
It is getting me a bit motivated, Keep it up.
Thanks for the link Kartras, Great price & a nice looking reservoir, I will have to get a matching rear reservoir also>

had a couple of days off over xmas...kids busy with toys...so i managed to get a bit of sh1t tidied in the shed and reclaim the workbench...hopefully i can get back into it in the new year. I have an ace well clock and mt-01 ish light unit to be fitted and somehow get the zx6r tail unit fitted. Still trying to figure the tail unit fitment out .
Yeah I thought they looked good and priced ok. Google translate did the job for me too. I haven't filled with fluid so how they work is anyones guess.Quote:

Get some more pics up when you can
Been a while since any progress...but manage to get away to the shed for a couple of hours yesterday and got the new subbie mocked up...think its right so off to my mate the so called Ally welder.........http://i1153.photobucket.com/albums/...s55b44c0b.jpeghttp://i1153.photobucket.com/albums/...ps4646be85.jpg
looking good mate
Cheers Rod....I'm only hoping the welding for the subframe mounts are up to sctatch to hold my massive bulk...100kg+.
I am trying to slim the ole bike down it would probably be easier for me to loose a few kgs....but where is the fun in that
hahaha yeah i hear ya on that one mate i am in the plus sizes as well
The wheelbase looks really small in that photo. I like what you're doing here mate. Very tidy.
Yeah the wheelbase does look small in the picky, When the subbie gets back i'll have another look. it may just be the angle of the photo.mmmmmmm me thinks a stretched swinger may be on the horizon......Quote:

I am lookin for some stainless headers/exhaust manifold ( depends on which side of the atlantic you hail). I have heard a bandit1200 one may fit.....anyone got any ideas on which models may be interchangeable with my 93 750 wp?? or if anyone can share the dimensions of their b1200 headers?.......dont think I can afford a custom exhaust but if i thought another models header may fit I could start trawlin the ole bay of E's.
So got the subframe welded today and put it in place to see how it looks......

looking good mate
Armed with my trusty ruler, dividers, centre punch, hacksaw and files ..................

I just got to turn the ally into the template.............damn its hot in the garage........ sweatin like a rapist in a line up
The new mounts for the subframe look sweet, The top looks like it will do the job nicely
Maybe trim/grind the new lower brackets you have fabbed flat (at the top right shown in the pic) where it meets the new lower subframe to get a straight weld & to meet up with the shape of the tubing better maybe?
The lower rounded section blends into the frame nicely but the curve does not suit the subframe tubing as much

What headlight are you going with?
