Chop

[kayjee]

Hi All,
onto my 2nd VTR and it's still a great bike as I remembered. Decided to change it's appearance and shed the plastics. I've attached my drawing and have started stripping it and adding bits.
Currently...
Took off all plastics and removed subframe (to be chopped?!)
Added a new yoke and renthal bars.
Dreading trying to sort the electrics and worried it'll never run again but enjoying the process!

this will devide opinion im sure, but always nice to see people do something different, id ditch the side rads and run a SV1000 suzuki rad sitting in the normal position.

[kayjee]

Thanks for the advice Fabiostar! Do you know if there's any other changes necessary or will the sv rad fit straight in? Cheers

[kayjee]

Got a new seat for it...light...and small clock too

[kayjee]

Might have to run alongside holding the light and speedo on if I can't fit them properly!

[kayjee]

Renthal medium road bars too...

Like the seat but now the cans stick out too far.
Wheelbarrows spring to mind for some reason....... What are your plans for those?

[kayjee]

I like that about it...Might get some tank decals made up: Honda Firebarrow!!

[fabiostar]

i believe with the SV rad its mainly just making up brackets to hold it, tho space is tight but a vfr750 fan can be squeezed into the space to help it keep temps to normal in traffic

Not a wheel barrow

Definitely not a wheelbarrow

I like your way of thinking
