Cheers for the info Wack.. i'm thinkin an R1 project is a goer..

Getting some more work on the bike. The front end is getting a bit of a make-over.
New black fat bars, billet levers and mirrors

Had a problem with the h/light, after waiting for 3 weeks for it from the UK, it arrived cracked. But since magaed to sort out a replacment from the guy.
Having a bit of drama with the brake lever though as they seem to be of a different year R1. Had to make a new bush for the clutch, but the brake is going to be a bit of a nuisance. Talking to the guy now trying to sort it out.

Bugger about the mismatched stuff Wack... coming along nicely though, do you like the Driven bars? bend wise I mean..
starting on my R1 front end sooon just bought 03 black forks, my forks are a bit tatty so conversion to newer model is on the cards should get em soon..
Lookin good Jules!
Finally finished the headlight tonight. Bracket is made from alloy plate, cut and welded. Mounted from the top and bottom yoke so as to keep the forks clean. Also the alloy runs up parallel with the forks so wires are hidden from view. Finished off in Matt Black.
Just enough place to get the key in :D

lookin good frenchy
Looks like a really nice pro job mate, still no joy with the brake lever?
Have to contact them in 2 days to see what's happening. Its no big thing to sort. I'll just grind it down a bit if they don't exchange it. Had to make a bush for the clutch lever to fit!!! I'd rather they change it though
Well that come up nice and tidy mate, good job..
Yeh very tidy Julez I like it!
nice one jules, headlight is lookin good
Sweet as!
Finally got off my ass and got some front indicators. Took me a while to find exactly what I wanted and I'm happy with the result.

Love your work Jules top stuff..
Looking good Jules.
Cheers boys. I know what I want for the bike. Just takes a while to find or make the parts though.
Next on my list is to re-make the coolant overflow bottle. Gonna try to make it out of a solid bar alloy. Drill and bore it so as to have no caps welded on using a sintered cap as a breather (and to fill up from). Then make a bracket with 2 mounting points (rather than the current one with only 1 mounting point) and finally finish it off nicely in black so as not to really show up next to the radiator
[:0] dats naughty.. top stuff Jules..
Fuckin hooligans! :D Nice mate!
The adult part of my brain (don't ask where it is, it must be tiny) is telling me that you are a lunatic, and this kind of anti-social behaviour must be stamped out before we are all corrupted...
But... the little kid part of my brain (the one with the majority-share) is screaming "Fuckin Sick Wheelie, Mister! Do a skid!!!"[8D][8D][8D]
Finally decided to get my ass into gear and start taking the bike to bits (hope I can put it back together again). Plan is to strip it down to the bear bones. Clean it all up, repaint the engine and powdercoat the frame. Also put on a few bits and bobs and maybe modify a few things. We'll see how it goes.
Was in the shed for a few hours tonight and got it to this stage. All bodywork removed. Air box and carbies off. Loom is disconnected as well and i have drained the coolant. Tomorrow hopefully be back in there after work and get some more work done

Well till now it is all easy. Putting it back together is the hard part :D
Did a couple of more hours work in the shed. Need to get a chain braker to remove the chain so i can drop the engine next
