Good work ash!
I'm so glad to see her looking so good. Now hurry up and get all the panels on  If you need help with the alarm let me know and I'll talk you through installation.
There was no need to spend 70quid on indicator mirrors though, you could have quite easily retrofitted some normal indys onto the panels and used normal cheapo mirrors.

No prob,
I wouldn't wire in anything but the alarm and indicator flashers though. If you wire in the immobiliser, remote start etc they can (and often do) go wrong and leave you stranded.
If anyone wants your bike they will chuck it into a van and cut out the immobiliser at a safe place anyway so no point having it IMO.

Sorry havnt put any pitures up my camera's USB broke today ...but even worse....the bike hasnt had anti-freeze in i knew i should of checked but thaught it would be ok covered up in a concrete garage...but it completley froze the pipes the radiator spent about 3 hours trying to thaw it tonight poor hot water over and through the pipes ect....managed to get it all out and filled it with pure anti-freeze so if it gets just a little warmer and the're any bits of ice still in there it will just mix with the anti freeze sorry people will keep you updated.
P.S had to take the tank , belley panels and side panels off to access the water pipe's/radiator properly! NOT A HAPPY BUNNY!  |

Ok, i guess its time for a update..maybe even too late,
But after seeing a friend do some pretty good handy work on his racing r1...I got completely motivated and left my house at about 8pm just after all the madness on Coronation street  ...And i was set on finishing the bike before i came in ...Which ended up being around 2:30 in the morning ...as you can see the time im writing this.....
I purchased a bandage that repaired end cans for cars (preferably). But common sense told me it would do just as good for attaching my exhaust i also purchased some exhaust paste....however when tidying up the garage my step dad found a heavy duty jubilee clip in his BT van..(The ones we tried before kept snapping or unwinding)...so we applied the paste then the jubilee clip and hey presto it worked no leaks nothing.....however the bike wouldn't start...again 
Seriously worried now the ice may have destroyed the bike i took a break to think things over plus i needed a cup of tea/kitkat anyway....going back to the garage i checked the carb and a chunk of ice fell out...SHIT! after trying the bike more and more it did start and kept cutting out (think due to cold and not being started or even touch for a month and a half...so fingers crossed it will start better tomorrow now its had a bit of a run....
(i forgot to mention the battery was flat so had to jump it to start it first , but after it kept cutting out just charged the battery to make it a little easier)
after all this was over it must have being about 12:00pm
now this is going to seem like WTF to most people out their...but this is my first project and first time i even had a proper look at a bike and taken it apart...so i spent the next 2 hours sorting out panels and screws and what screws went where ect ect and putting it all together including (taking the entire front fairing off which ment headlights indicators just to put the screws in for the visor) so wasnt all that bad...Plus i would now like to mention the layout of this bike is dreadful!....i would recommend the bike 100% but to get anywhere in the bike you have to remove fairings and the sub frame and the air filter so it can be a nightmare...
Now the bikes done its pitch black out side i can hear fox's making their funny noise's so i go in make another cup of tea sit back and admire the bike  ......
Pictures will definitely be up tomorrow might be on my [hone depends if i can find a USB to fit my camera but some pictures will 100% be uploaded..Thanks.
P.S
If your interested at reading peoples bike projects can i reccomend you visit Damon and his R1 rebuild...really cool |

Sorry i know no pictures ....my USB for the camera has broke...went and got a spare off my grandad just so illl get some up soon,
Bad news is i found a pipe that leads to absolutly nowhere ??? quite a chunky thick pipe so i took some panels off to have a look and cracked a panel!! repaired it and looks as good as new tbh and its under neath anyway so wasnt noticable took me a good half an hour to realise....
did little shopping spree...two stroke, tank pretector, 'L' Plates unfortunatly  more break fluid just to fill it up pumped up the back tire which was flat...maybe from sitting still for months, might have let it down when i collected it though so it fitted on the trailer cant remember. so not all good tbh with the crack and the pipe...will sort the pipe out tommorow and have little photo spree  |

UPDATE: found the pipe was for the air filter which once we took apart was full of water!!! (maybe from my consistent washing down)
put the pipe back in place dried out the filter box and then the filter its self ...should have added some filter oil but haven't got any to hand will pick some up tomorrow after its m.o.t ....The intake for the air filter didn't have a cover on either ??? will have to see about this although the air filter its self filters the air and now all the fairings on i cant see water getting into it so should be ok...
Fairings ? all on in need of clean maybe a wax,
the frames in desperate need of a polish and clean also ...then it is all done and dusted only thing perhaps maybe some decals or graphics?
Got a few photo's with the fairings on for Damon...couldnt get great photo's due to it being dark out side and the garage is a squash will do more tomorrow maybe fit alarm ?

i know she needs a clean and polish but its cold and dark and i need a cuppa tea and biscuit 
EDIT:
Many people probably thinking that screen doesn't looks healthy ?
found a double bubble in dark black but their £70!!!
so since its winter and the screen looks alot like a ice block in person i may just leave it and maybe put some letters on saying ICE COLD or just ICE and leave it at that for now
anyone got a name for her ? was thinking bumble since the front end reminds me of a bee aha |
