she hasnt been registered on the road since 96' has had the whole engine rebuilt cams reprofiled, every bearing replaced,
the only things that are letting it down are the old tyres and the shitty rear air shock (no spring, just air/oil) which with a little modding ill fit a vfr800 shock, also the front antidive forks will have to go, not because they don't work, just because they were a shit idea then and still are now,
i was going to ditch the front cowling/headight and just go with a single round one, but there is another radiator under it, and it uses the headlight scoops ect to force air through, and there really isnt enough room to put a larger rad in, so the cowl stays,
all in all, she's a really realy nice conditioned bike the pulls from very low revs through to the 12k rpm redline and beyond without any hesitation anywhere through.
loud cans here i come, must release v4 awesomeness from chokingly quiet can  ____________________ the humans are dead
