Well i got a GPZ 750 for a baragain price off ebay it aint run for 6 years n all that brakes are all knackered so is most the bike to be honest..

To date ive sorted the carbs out as they looked dreadfull, fitted progressive springs and bypassed the anti dive junk, Top yoke conversion and renthal replica bars, Changed the headlight, Modified the Dash board lights top suit the new top yoke etc.... Loads more still to do... excuse poor quality pics my phone doesnt like low level lighting Crying or Very sad

Cheers much better than the orignal look i reckon Cool, im trying to source the wiseco810 cc kit and the performance engine parts for it (and a spare engine that i can do all the big bore stuff n that too), once i get the front brakes done and working the back end is next for some re modelling as it is fucking huge at the back... maybe a R1 rear end or summat i dunno yet tho Crying or Very sad , Then the real fun comes with the exhaust im thinking of making a twin hi level system but that will be last on my list wanna get the bike rideable first so i can play with the suspension settings

Sounds expensive... I can just hear the 'cha ching' noises in your local dealer.

So far to date its cost me £450 that includes buying and collecting the bike, the top yoke, the fork springs, headlight brackets, any fluids, the TDM calipers, the bilet spacers n the bars n fork seals... prolly a few things i forgot....o yer a battery Wink i reckon when im finished its gonna be about £1000, a friend of a friend has the fancy cams and possibly a wiseco engine kit i can have Cool (cheap)

i reckon it will be finished by the end of the summer if things go to plan but i doubt it LOL as i aint got a clue with the brakes as i have to make mounting brackets for the calipers nad im not too good at metal work Sad

Looking good SBH, it's taken some time to do though. Wink

The bike looks much better without the fairing and those new bars on it. Thumbs Up

keep the reare end and cghop the number plate plastics and shit off, led light in the tail peice, and mount the number plate on the back wheel. gives ya a super clean rear end, those gpz's have clasic lines. not thought of chaining the forks and wheels to newer 3 spokes?

Get a R1 rear end race fairing and cut holes for the brake lights, and use some aluminium angle for the number plate bracket. Thumbs Up


Looking good.

The R1 rear end was in my mind Cool As it would probably be the best looking one to go with the Twin pipes i want to fit... Just need to find some downpipes that go 2 into 1 and exit either side so i can start playing about with cans and such

Sweet bike man. Did you deliberately go for the green since your last bike was bright green? Looks very.....different! I like it.

I'd probably fit twin halogens to it myself if you were keeping it naked.

By the way, one huge lookin' garage!!! Surprised Thumbs Up
