These are great -- can we keep em coming
Perhaps you should let Jobloggs loose on it with his angle grinder
He will have it looking like this in no time
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.

Not too sure about the stunter thing . . . at 5' 6" i'm a bit stunted myself :lol used to do some playground stunts in the mid 80's- see pic.
Another option is to strip it down and sell off the useable parts to raise cash for what you really want.
Treat everything in life the way a dog would- if you can't eat it or foc it, forget it.

Given enough discs I think I could get it smaller than that

Give the frame and forks a good look over for crash damage. Get the engine running and make sure second gear isn't gone and the threads on the output shaft aren't stripped before you put any money into it. If that's all good I'd go for the "streetfighter" look. Putting back to standard would probably cost too much. Or if you want a fazer as a stunter this is the bike for it
picked it up today, it was a bit green and centre stand was seized took some abuse to get it off! (dirty thoughts out your head)
brakes where damn stiff and soggy tyres.
inspection of damage.
front fairing is.. id say written off if im too busy to fix hower... it has a big crack in it and a bit missing...
i could fibreglass the crack and over the part missing, fill it sand and spray...
rest of the bike is pretty good!
receipts for around £3k-£4k of work since it was made!
as far as i can tell every reciept for everything ever done is there, all work done in a garage so joe bloggs hasnt had his grubby mitts all over it.
2009 it hand a whole new exhaust system totalling £400!
not tried starting it yet as i had things to do but in the next few days ill get on it.
My workmate has just been given a 600 Bandit that has sat outside for 5 years, it looked all green and yucky like that, its amazing what a rub over with t cut and autosol can to to a bike, he has got it moted and on the road for under £170 mind you it didn't have any body work damage. Wish I could get a project like this for free.
If you worried about falling off your bike, you'd never get on.
If you are gonna use it for stunting and dent the tank I'm sure someone out there would be very grateful if you offered to swap your tank for someones that isn't in such good condition. With a cash adjustment of course.
