project storm
Well after rebuilding my storm after cct failure and looking around on here some very nice examples I must say .
I've just brought a 2002 vfr 800 swingarm and wheel.
I'll be pulling my hair out no doubt...
I've realised ill need to have new pipes made up etc .
The work will start with a repaint and a deep clean etc .digi dash ordered.
Then I'll start with the swingarm conversion but if i loose the will to live you may see it up for sale .

Re: project storm
Depending on how you alter the swing arm you might need a Hagon shock too .
Good luck with it
