I'm umming and ahhing about what to do next. Here's the bike so far:

New)(ish) paint job
VFR800 stickers/later Honda tank badge
Rebuilt carbs
Dynojet kit (showed about 95bhp at the rear wheel)
Left exit Sebring exhaust
Double bubble
36-2 front wheel
Maxton reworked front forks
Clear indicators
Thinking brackets for Brembo front calipers, build a subframe out of alloy, Hyperpro rear shock, LED rear brake light
Anyone made a subframe out of alloy to accomodate the existing rear fairing?
Ride it? :tongue:
Fork swap is always a good way to consume excess time and money...
Ciao,
Ha, I know and it might be on the cards in the future. It really does handle lovely with the Maxton front end, it certainly outperforms me anyway!
I'd say uncover that beautiful seat, ride it with a beautiful girl holding on tight and send me that horrible seat cowl... :wink:
Cheers,
Glenn
Ha, notice the right pillion peg is missing? Chopped down...do not want my wife on the back of this thing :)
I've got two other cowls. One's a fiberglass one that needs a bit of work and paint (£40 to whoever wants it) and an official one with one missing rear tab, I resprayed it in white - it's not a terrible job and it's not a pro job, but it'll come with a red seat hump that can be retrimmed, I repaired one of the front lugs with plastex. I'll take £60 for that one. £90 for both if you're feeling fruity.

Haha, thanks. I'll keep it in mind. I have one, but both rear tabs are broken. I have one of the broken tabs, so hopefully can get them sorted this summer.

I tried using plastex to form another one, which was easy, getting it to stick to the cowl wasn't. Gave up in the end. The one on the bike had a credit card and old driving license cut to shape and superglued on. Seems to have done the trick!
