Hello
https://imgur.com/gallery/m7Cxb5X

Just looking for a few pointers for parts that might fit the bike, like the VFR800 swing arm that i will get around to at some stage. What about forks? Worth changing? Do Fireblade forks fit etc.?
Also any tail/subframes that might fit on without too much trouble. (I might make my own)
Pics to follow, i just havenโt got around to making an image hosting account.
I just bought an โ06 and love it, also have an โ05 ZX6R

Sweet as! Thanks. Are they much better do you know or purely aesthetic?

I kinda have an unforeseen โproblemโ...
I donโt think I wanna make this bike a street fighter, I donโt know if i can improve how this looks, i think it looks f#%king great. Even though Iโd never think about putting camo design on a bike and itโs pretty beat up.
What would you do to mod it?

Iโve just started messing around, stripped Fairing and put up right bars on. Just mocking up stuff atm.
Itโs going to remain pretty rough until the home stretch, which im in no hurry to get to.
