Project ressurection *Killa's 7R'

She lived a short life, only owned her for just over a year.

I told myself I wouldn't buy the same bike twice, I was tempted by another NC30...but the 7R is the dogs. Twisted Evil

My trip Belgium with her did it for me. Was riding in and around several other bikes and the 7R held it’s own with anything really, partly down to the riding, but that was it! Riding this into Europe on this gave me wood.

Anyways, most of you know what happened to her.

We won’t talk of that said moment, her spirit still lives. And my goal is to re-create all that I had before.

It’s been slow progress but mainly down to this hellish weather, it was close to impossible to keep up some kind of upkeep.

So enter 7R number two…

A nice clean example, indicators that would put a Honda to shame. What looks like a prop out of pirates of the Caribbean stuck to the engine. A hideous number plate holder, weird Kawasaki stickers on the side and piss poor brakes.

Time to get busy…if a little slowly.

Braided hoses were a bit tricky...

I like it!!! Without that bloody horrible yellow thing attached to the side, its a lovely looking bike.... I'm getting very fond of the 7R's, something about the front end I think.

GOOD JOB!!! Thumbs Up

Thanks for comments guys...im not looking to put LED's all over it and dragon decals Laughing

Only slight mods that make this sleak looking 7R look the nuts.

I need a tank pad to replace the naff on on there now, some nice bars ends, a smoked screen that is the same shape as the original.
I can't think of much else. The front mudgaird needs replacing but you cant see the damage until you look over it so im not too fussed.

Anyone got ideas for nice mods, keeping in line with the theme.

(No Wave, im not buying a can of petrol and matches Razz

)

Ducati couldn't stand the punishment, id destroy the flimsy Italian tart because it wouldn't be allowed to hide in the garage, ever.

The SP2 would be nice, but the insurance is a joke.

Flimsy ?

How can you say that when you ride a Kawasaki ?

Shame on yourself.
