Posted: 20:33 - 08 May 2006 Post subject: FZR project fun bike |
|
|
Hi, some of you may not like it thats fair enough, but I decided to give an old fzr I got extremely cheap, a bit of a face lift. Its my new fun bike, something just for wheelies, stoppies and the like...
4 extra teeth on the back should be quite interesting . Its got 748 top fairing and side panels with the single light at the front, custom rear subframe to suit a custom tail section with built in rear light and indicators. Also two holes for the two underseat carbon end cans. After that it has had a complete re-spray, many people don't like it but I think its a bit crazy and a bit different so I like it . Part polished part powdercoated frame and same with the wheels. Many parts need finishing off but I thought i'd post up to show you guys, Dan ____________________ Don't ride it, RAG IT!! |

Its not a race replica
Its not the latest hot sports bike
Its what you wanted when the project started...
Therefore I like it!
Individuality is good. Its not to my taste, but I appreciate it for what it is!

Does it have 2 filler caps on the petrol tank?
It's a beautifully finished bike, contraversial, a definite head-turner.
Nice job. |

Dan you had to come along and make me look bad didn't you?
Very impressive mate, not too sure about the paint job but i love the polished rims, body work and under seat cans.
Where'd you get the airbrushing done?
And how much did you spend in total?
I'd give a 9/10 overall ____________________ wizzzard wrote: Imagine God just stopping by, tidying your front room up and then quietly letting himself out again. Statisticly more likely to happen than Korn being on here. |

WOW! I really wasn't expecting such a good response, thanks a lot guys
Cheers quacker, the airbrushing was done by me and a friend and overall its cost me, including the original cost fo the bike around £1700. I budgeted for around £2000, so that I could get just the bike I wanted and I liked to ride, still a few bits and bobs to finish off yet though
Gaz, as for my sig, its just something to try and bring home the fact that biking is dangerous. I myself as a biker can argue this isn't the case all day long as well if your careful you will never get hurt, but since my recent big off, its made me realise just how easy it is.
Thanks again, Dan ____________________ Don't ride it, RAG IT!! |
