lol, doesnt bother me .. ive never presented any of mine as an example of cleanliness..

is pretty clean .. dont like the seat though, seems a bit "flat" .. maybe if it was kicked up a bit more ..

sorry.

it did take a bit of modifying its still the original zxr400h rear frame with the 900 plastics over the top i had to make a few brackets. the rear seat comes of with the key as it should do. the hardest bit was the front seat i had to use the bottom of the 400 seat and cut it about and join it to the bottom of the 900 seat and then cut it out wear the tank sits and recover it. i see some people think it should kick up more the reason i didnt do that was because i wanted it to look more natural not like id just stuck an after market back end on it cheers for the feedback. i do have some pics of the build i will post when i get a chance.

aesthetics is all subjective .. if you like it then :)

you got a ZX4 engine in there ? which CDI did you go with in the end ? 1271 ? or 1245 ?

yeah its got the zx4 engine in it i put the cdi off of the zx4 as well and it runs fine not sure of the number without looking i also picked up a zxr400l engine for it that was a good runner but had noisy cams ive fitted a good set of second hand cams in it but have decided not to fit it in the bike yet as the zx4 engine runs so well. so if the zx4 engine dont last at least ive got a back up.
