that's looking great lloydie...
mean and modern looking from the front, I look forward to seeing it all finished.

I hope it won't be too long .
If I get the quills sold it'll pay for the new link pipes and shim kit for the tuned mota then it'll be ready to rock :-) .

Looking good Lloydie

Well.. still no response on the garage so that's a goner

Got some friends from the area looking into more places for me, which is nice, I really am wanting one right now..

Especially since I've just made a deal for an SV650 as a second bike. I'm a bit hesitant about putting the VTR on the track still, so I'm gonna get this for cheap and use that as a track bike. Don't get it for two months (it's from a mate and he needs it until he gets a car).. I know exactly what I'm getting for the money and it's not a bike I'm really going to give a sh1t about, so should be fun on the track So what if it isn't the most powerful bike, I'm not the fastest rider to begin with

The SV650 are good bikes YMVirt, and I can quite understand you not wanting to use your Storm on the track,

Chris.

Tis looking good Lloyd but I'm I the only one that thinks it looks a bit like a gsxr from the front?

Top job, looking very smart. Like you mention, will look even better with a bellypan

I am in the process of gathering all the parts to convert the butt of my "banana" CBR600fy into the more modern looking stepped F Sport race butt. That requires a sub frame though.

It's on hold at the moment as its too cold & wet Your a braver man than me

Fitted GSG crash bungs and mini clear lens indicators, yay! Sadly had to remove my steering damper to accommodate the crash bungs, and now proudly sporting a new GP Moto cover which fits like it was tailor-made

Got this lot back from the powdercoaters



Tapped out the engine mount thread and got the new adjuster bolt in finally (cheers once again Jamie!)



Then checked my valve clearances while I still have easy access to it all



Looks like I'll be getting busy with some shims for my next job, then there's only a million other things to do before it'll finally be back in one piece!
