Here we go.

As I promised in my first post:  http://www.vfrdiscus...om-brisbane-au/

I am officially starting my build thread now ;)

I was planning to do it when I get more time to spend on the VFR, but I realized that It will never happend as I am involved in a few other builds,

as well as my main project at the moment which is opening a workshop in Brisbane YAY!

So this will be very slow build I'm afraid :(

You really are me :goofy:

More info on the workshop in Brisbane! And I am officially appointing myself as your project pusher-alonger, because it will be good for me too :fing02:

Yeah mate, I am. Since you are a Phantom, everything is possible :goofy:

And I NEED a project pusher a LOT.

The workshop is something I was planning to do since I moved to Australia.

It will be quite different from any other workshops. I was running one in Poland (where I come from) with my mates and it is more like a community thing with a twist. 

Atm we are in the final planning stages and searching for a suitable warehouse to lease.

I will be looking for a mechanically inclined ppl to help with few ideas, but this will have to wait till we find the right place.

I will keep you posted.

My project is a slow one too :unsure:  unfortunately. And I'll help push too! haha Like Phantom said, it'll help me too! :fing02:

Pictures of the bike! and shop! please :happy:

Spent some time in a garage today, and I am not happy:(

Found some more damage to the front of the bike.

Need a new front head cover and headers. Anyone?;)

Dang.... You bought it wrecked?


#8
Yeah. It was supposed to be a donor bike for my other projects (SSSA conversion for the XV and spare parts for my red VFR) but I decided to save it. Now I will have to go back to my original plan:-( unless I find a cheap parts.

So... what you're tellin' me... is that you NOT be able to see the gears through that hole?  Hmmm.....

My next question was going to be "any chance of parting out the 4th gen exhaust?  But... i think that's irrelevant now.

Sorry your revival isn't going as planned.  But everything happens for a reason.  This just means that bike has another future.


#10

I have a header system you can have.

Also got a spare valve cover, but I need that... have a look on ebay motors (US), that's where I got mine from - $30 or so.
