just went to view this due to haveing a date for my full test soon so put a deposit on the bike and its comeing wednesday needs a tidy up but i like it. spec 1988 FZR1000 flip flop paint with Yamaha tuning fork graphics(sprayed not stickers) renthall fat bars with risers goodrich hoses new pirelli corsa tyres less than 500 miles ago new chain and sprockets at same time ducati 916 single seat unit suzuki bandit chrome clocks dominator twin headlights new front discs powder coated black frame and swing-arm black wheels with polished lips need redoing black engine with polished bits needs redoing braided hose covers new gel battery head flowed and polished harris 4 into 1 exhaust plans are a good tidy up of wires lick of paint here and there and polish some bits up maybe a respray and get it restricted also got some sidi vertigo boots with it which are sprayed in parts the same as the bike
not my scene of bikes but has a nice spec list, paints nice too. is that a nos bottle on the side :eh: . ps sidi vertigos ftw :good:
i love streetfighters tbh fire as parts for the old bikes are cheap and pleantyfull and i like the style ever since i bought the streetfighter magazine pluss there cheap i payed £700 for it and hes delivering for free as its near by. paint needs redoing tbh as its orangepealy but got enought of the paint to redo it. yeah its a nos bottle used as a overflow tank though (may fit not in the future if i feel crazey) anyway got my theory tomorrow so soon as thats done ill book my weeks training and get the test done
passed my theory and got the bike today but the twat didnt tell me the headlights didnt work so need to have a look at them bar that it needs a good clean polish up polished bits may even get a respray black with white tuning forks i dont know yet though will have to think about it. oh and its stupidly fast got to 120 on a private road in no time atall and every fucker stares at it lol
120 is only the top of third gear...theres another 2 to go after that :grin: . Should be good for 150 without the full fairing. Hope you've got strong neck nuscles :lol: The EXUP model (1002cc) is good for 170 with fairing and has even better low end grunt due to design and the EXUP valve giving loads more torque off the deck
yeah ive been told its good for 150 but the road isnt that big tbh and yeah need to start going gym as i can bearly lift the rear end to get it in my garden. yeah was hopeing someone fitted a exup lump in this but nope maybe in the future i will upgrade to a newer model but ive got to get used to this one first which is going to take a while as it feels insanely fast for me. anyway booked my lessons and also orders the restriction kit which cost £180 which is alot for 4 washers pluss i have to get it fitted by the shop so there going to have me over a barrel to pay for that.
