another your bike thread with a difference

We all take photos of our bikes when we first get them so we can whore them to our mates, some of us carry a little photo around in our wallet and show them to complete strangers (you know you do). I nwas interested to see how peoples bikes change from when they first got them to now, post a pic of your bike when it was new to you and the condition, or mods you have made now.
These can include bolt ons or one off tarmac customizations you have made.

My Slabby as i got it ...
https://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh311/NiteMare_08/Slabby/8a_1.jpg

leaky but running (just) 750 engine and generally a ratty fighter basis

as it is now
https://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh311/NiteMare_08/2008_05260005.jpg

1127 GSXF engine and carbs, unknown Zook front wheel with Slabby 1100 discs and GSXR400 gk76 calipers, GSXR1100m downpipes with home built cans (4 old scrap ones) slabby 1100 swingarm and slingshot 5.5" rear wheel , Mille seat and self built subbie, home sorted lighting and self built wiring harness, only thing i didn't do was weld the lugs for the subbie to the frame (i can't weld ally)...

i think that's about it

oh and shortened the sidestand as it had it's own peculiar dance

https://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb54/stevenns125/2007_04_15_bikepics-865343-800-2-1.jpg

https://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb54/stevenns125/Bike5.jpg
https://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb54/stevenns125/Bike4.jpg

As it sit's(after temporary repairs):

https://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb54/stevenns125/DSC00308.jpg

Temporary meaning over 6 months, I have the parts to rebuild it back as it was but need to find the time. Also, it doesn't have L plates now, so no recent ones within the last 2 months.

Issue was hitting a car sat in traffic at about 25mph, due to random front brake failure and no escape route.

I so badly miss the looks of it in the first picture and lust for it to return to that state so badly, think reminiscing over it has just about prompted me to get it started as a winter project. Being something of a classic stroker I don't feel it deserves to be as it is, so back to it's former glory it shall hopefully go.

It is one sexy little bike in full livery. Razz

First drastic modified bike was my Speedfight.
Went from a pretty basic Speedfight I, To a totally 1 off Speefight I, 70cc etc. Every tunable mod at the time. Spent alot of money on it! Laughing

Before: (Well kind of, Sort of 1/2 through the mods)
https://w1.bikepics.com/pics/2004%5C12%5C11%5Cbikepics-256697-full.jpg

After: (Before I sold it)
https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/binge/11.jpg

2nd bike to be modded big time was my Honda NC29.
Was written off. So I re-built it onto a new frame. Changing most parts on the way.

Before: (Too much polished parts for my liking anyway)
https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/binge/CIMG3936-Copy.jpg

And after (Sold now, But hopefully still its current state)
https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/binge/19062008630.jpg

After that was the Viffer.
All I really did was fit new tyres, new exhaust and take off the luggage rack. Oh, And blow up the engine. Embarassed

Before:
https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/binge/DSC00453.jpg

After:
https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/binge/DSC00666.jpg

And the current bike.

Brand new, 100% Stock:
https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/binge/19082008167.jpg

And a load of Money, Blood, Sweat and Tears later. Its almost complete.
