ITS ABOUT FINISHED !!

[cable tie]

Ayup chaps, ive about finished my little project till the new year ! its minta than mint, did i tell ya all i have a OCD  :o  and taking into account its condition and what id have to pay to get something in this spec, its alot of bike for not alot of money.

new Seat an all the carbon now fitted.



I brought some oberone heavy stainless bar ends and had em powder coated black no more vibs,i removed the stock fairing decals but it looked to plain so the decals you see, the fazer is from the fz8 and the red 1000-exup decals from ebay.



I cant make my mind up if i like the NRC engine covers! and the colour is a very slight shade different than the rocker so they may go back on ebay! or ill get the spare rocker i have colour matched, oh yeah i have some billet covers also coming from the states, i also had the front engine/frame brace powder coated black and all the little brackets that cant be seen in the pics.



Timing cover needs re-powdercoating as i did not clean the bolt holes enough  :\  and so when i put the bolts in i got a hairline crack in the powder so only fitted for pics, and i removed the genuine yam crash bungs and replaced with the moto ones and whilst i had everything in bits i polished all the stainless bolts.



Carbon rad covers now fitted.



Im going to replace the chain to a nice coloured one.



Yep its even got heated grips! Daytona ones these feel like sportsbike grips nice soft feel to em and yeah i do plan to use it for my trips into europe.



LSL rear sets and HM quickshifter.



So id like to wish all you foccer's a merry xmas ...

Very Nice.

[BMCfaz]

It looks great, something for the rest of us to aim for!
Happy crimbo to you too, and all other foccers.

[bludclot]

that is a very nice bike indeed. i particularly like that you haven't cut down the rear mudguard - a particular dislike of mine. the wheels look absolutely awesome.

when we go to a meet we'll have to park next to each other and argue who's is the cleanest!

[Bracechenko]

Lovely bike mate, wish mine was that clean!

[devilsyam]

needs a carbon dash and tax disc holder and there never finished lol

[kebab19]

Verrrry nice, stunningly clean!

Possibly assembled in a germ-free environment...you may need therapy

[alan09]

FFS thats boooootiful. top marks cable tie you've done a foccin gud job there.

[dekker555]

A fantastic job you've done there! Those wheels too! Are you going to ride it, or stand it in the lounge and sit and admire it? Difficult choice I would think. Would you mind telling us what screen you have on it please? Thanks in anticipation. Derek.

as ever dave, your bike has to be viewed with sunglasses on !
I take it the engine has been repainted ? ...must admit this is the real issue with our older bikes. I tried steam cleaning mine...yes the gunge came off but the " alloy paint" is flaking from road dirt.
I keep saying I will strip mine down to clean it thoroughly ...but as soon as good weather comes, I am off out on it !

I do wonder how many hours you put in to getting a bike to that standard ( ie as new) ??

[Philk]

Thats one good looking bike... love the Gold wheels :b

Jon, the only new paint is on the rocker cover, the engine has not been touched however i did clean it with a toothbrush  :\  to bring it up as you see, the previous owner had never riden the bike in the rain or bad weather so that helps .

Ive spent afew hours indeed but ill confess i do like to tinker i get great enjoyment from doing it, and will have to find something else to tinker with now .

[pitternator]

I have an idea.... how about getting a 04 silver gen1 back to pristine condition !    :lol

[Falcon 269]

Looks like you need some air in that front tyre, Dave. 

Outstanding result, fella ... I wonder what Paul would have to say about his old bike now?  It's not as if he let it get in a shabby state while he had it.  :lol
