Little update bike is in the workshop at the moment for a new custom set of headers to meet up with my can. Hopefully have the bike back early in the new year, before it went i fitted the new rearsets and gear linkages and they all line up ok. hopefully get the seat done and finish modding the tank so house the electrics after they are shortened up about 3 foot.
Went mad with the hacksaw at the weekend in prep for the rear seat unit also the r6 rear is nearly ready to go in. R6 shock is in but needs a few custom bits to make it fit correctly but i'm hoping it will be rolling by the weekend. Now just to pick the seat unit and get fabricating the new rear subframe up and attempt to get the oem airbox out(which is a cunt of a job)
Rear swingarm is lined up, few custom bits had to be made to make it fit. No chance of getting in the workshop now till thursday so will have to wait until then to make the shock fit correctly. Hopefully by the end of the weekend the rear end should be complete and fitted to the bike then onto the exhaust system and seat unit.
I've mine out at the moment(changing mine to something less steel girder) I'll measure it tonight for you pal. Hope you've got a lathe hanging around as you need to make/have made a few bits to make it if and also have to mod the frame depending on which swinger your going for
It is the bible for fitting to a fzs1000 not a 600. Thanks though thats mike on here who posted it. Also the forks are already fitted having a bastard of a job now with the swingarm conversion and the rear subframe.
It is a BIG help you right but don't get me wrong i have find the money for parts/labour (not that ive paid owt yet) i still have to think of the ideas for the look of the bike etc etc. its by no way hand it to him and he will gi ve me it back
They are used forks from a r6 13s 2009. The work is being carried out by a friend with who has a garden workshop (which i'm helping out the best i can) and learning some bits along the way. He has great contacts as MTC exhuasts(Martin) are going to make me a one of ti system to link up with the can ive gone for. But yes me and the mate are hopefully gonna do it all ourselfs to keep the cost down well aprt from the parts that is.
Little updatefront end is on the bike. bit of lathe work was required to get it done but i'm over the moon with the results and glad i'm finally getting somwhere with the project. onto the rear swingarm now then to decide what to do with the subframe looks like it will be going the whole thing. still a long road ahead but getting results now.
