I've looked into this a bit and figured that if I build an entire seat unit with all electrics in place so I can unplug the lighting and unbolt the frame I should be able to switch and bolt on a new subframe and plug the new lighting in. Although I'd do most of the work myself with a fabricator mate finishing off the welding. Is there any mot issues regarding strength that might arise ? How did it go with your r1 rear end ?
had an 03 R1 put on mine by a local bike builder as my welding is shit

Although I'd do most of the work myself with a fabricator mate finishing off the welding. Is there any mot issues regarding strength that might arise ? How did it go with your r1 rear end ?A "hot swappable" rear end. Could devise a "universal" loom connector (coming from the bike), so both swappable tail sections (café racer / race) have an identical mating Connector (for lighting / indicators etc), and just plug straight into the bike. Could literally be a 5 minute job to swap tail sections. Both swappable rear subframes would have 4 mounting lugs of identical dimensions/positions, so they mate to the rear frame of the Bike, where corresponding lugs are welded on. This sounds a great idea!
after seeing your post over on the other forum i have been eyeing up mille parts alongside my other ideas possibilities i.e. single sided-where did you get your airfilter setup at ?? - im just running shit chinese pods at moment till i find something betterif its easy its no fun !!!!!
extended swingarms and fat tyres are only for looksdestroys handling on any bike especially sportsgo for it on a vmax show bike and chops but wouldnt even consider it for a fazer i think it would look so wrong
im throwing loads into mine but nowhere near that sort of money neededhell im having enough tears right now with my datatool alarm system spiked (cant disarm)damn things held together with the one set of security bits i cant find so its another couple of days to wait
