So this is what happens when you let a bike go under a parked semi.
completely stuffed the top fairings, side fill panels, dented the top of the tank, cracked all the instruments. Here is a chance to build my first streetfighter. it was real cheap anyway. cost me a VRS set for a camry and the labour to do the job incl timing belt ( about 4hrs)
Still no idea where the bits got put but i sure i'll lose more, im moving
I guess the oggies didn't help huh.
How did you manage that - think I remember reading something about a wheelie gone wrong...
What model Phill?
Looks like a good start.
oggies saved the side fairings, shame about the nosecone!
Yep, fucked up a wheelie. was going to post some new pics of the rebuild but suck at photo work. need to reduce the size of the pics first without losing too much clarity.

Couldn't pick it, very similar to an 88 CBR600 in bits in my shed.
Christ it's hard to get parts for, not many sold aparently.
Heaps of 1000s round though.
This is a Hornet we sold damaged to a Pommie geezer as a cosmetically damaged stocker a while back, check out the style on it now. []
The owner got this brace sent out from Metmachex to his dimensions(they cut it in half for him to save on postage cost) got a second 'arm off a wrecker & got the brace welded on & voila!
Instant trick swinger [
It's got a lot of little tricky bits on it this, & it all makes up for a cool mid size 'Fighter I reckon - maybe even a challenger for the all time Middleweight Champion - the SV 650 [:0]
I was thinking about doing something like that with my swinger Turbo. Anyone in Aus you know does that sort of thing?
Msaybe Fimp or ZX could do up the plans with their trick engineering software?
He's done a nice job mate. Have you pointed him this way? Sounds like another lost soul for our kind of entertainment.

grind off this bit and them grind back a little on the pivot mount on the arm. not as neat as Bens mill but all I can afford.

saw one of the other posts about shorty cans.
Heres my entry. 220mm end to end with original honda part number still on it. pop riveted sheet of alloy to outside to cover up some gravel rash. nice new note, quiet at idle but.breathes heaps better, no packing just three inner tubes all offset internally. dont know about performance gains / losses but the bike seems to pick up a lot better.
