Carbon trim

Post by Big Hoddie »

Fitted a full micron race system. Will shortly be replacing the can with an sp engineering can. Removed the hoover pipes for a nice flat panel that will be carbon wrapped soon. The whole bike is going black and carbon fibre (sorry wabby). I have to change the fork seals, service the brakes and flush the oil tank and change the oil and filter. More to follow.....

Yeah, but they keep changing depending on how much i have handy. Basically, upgrading the brakes and getting a new shock, respraying black with a carbon fibre trim, ditch the pillion seat, digital koso clocks, get some parts to boost power and then work on the trinkets lol

Also, swapping the micron can for a tyga maggot, as the micron pipes allow for a bolt on or slip on

Update; will be having bikebunkers tyga maggot and 916 front brembos. A friend of mine is gonna try and make a tank panel out of proper carbon fibre.

Next step, buying an 07 r1 rear master cylinder. Its gonna get resprayed satin back with the brembo writing and logo in red, and will be fitting that along with a k6 front master cylinder (radial). After that, getting rid of the torsion bar and fitting a rear 748 brembo caliper on top of the disc. HEL brake lines, brendix mf pads and pazzo levers will be on by the summer. Once the brakes are sorted, the engine will recieve my attention. Pictures as they're all fitted :)

LMAO.

1. Chicken strips never existed on the bike when I sold it. Other than 1cm on the front that I didn't care to push off on the road.
2. You have put non-sticky tyres on the bike now (as in that picture) and have bigger fanny bands than you do scrubbed tyre! :excited :excited

She still looks nice though - But I do prefer the looks and speed of my 7r ;)
