Few more parts,

Brake/clutch lines, all extra length to reach the superbike bars.



CRG Spectrum adjustable shorty brake/clutch levers,



Front wheel,







CBR1000rr carbon fiber front guard,





Now just need to find time and a place to put it all together, .....

Wont be going in the bin ozzy1100 , I bought it new to help me figure out what needed to be done to make the 2012 CBR1000rr front end fit my VTR.

[aaa123]

2012 CBR1000RR stem will not fit the VTR frame as it is to large at the top bearing.

I got a SP1 lower triple clamp.

SP1 lower triple on left, CBR lower triple on right,







SP1 & CBR have same size lower bearing & dust seal, so I took a guesstimate that a stem swap would work.



Pressed the stems out,





Then pressed SP1 stem into CBR lower triple clamp,







VTR lower stem bearing is 17mm thick, SP1 lower bearing is 14mm thick, so I had a 3mm spacer machined up to fit into the VTR frame,







SP1 upper stem is to small for CBR upper triple clamp, so had a spacer machined for that,

What a brilliant post mate. This subject and method has come up many times over the years but nobody has ever done a picture documentation, it's always just words. This is gold. Can I borrow it for the HOW TO section?

Thank you Gix11....

Yes, borrow away.... The only thing I left out that you may want to include for a HOW TO would be that the steering stops will more than likely need modification, but this step would depend on what bike is used, e.g VTR, VFR, CBR or some other bike.

[aaa123]

Going to order one of these. Never had a bike stand, about time I bought one.
Any one used them before ? I think they look to be very helpful for working on front end & rear end.

Cheers mate. I added it to our HOW TO blog section:

I'll be doing a very similar thing shortly, only with a custom stem. I'll try take some photos of the custom bits.

Are Dynobike at Winston Court Moorabbin any good ?

I am going insane, with my bike not starting. Need some one who knows about the VTR to help.

Please ......................

Where abouts are you?

[aaa123]

I'm Bayside, Inner South Eastern Suburbs.

[Squid]

Probably a bit out of the way for you, and i dont know if they specialise in VTRs in particular, but Mk1 Motorcycles in carrum downs are good, small shop, no bullshit, good rates.

[aaa123]

Thanks for the reply Squid,

I am going to give it one last try to fix my self tomorrow, If I still cant get the thing to start I might try Dynotune.
