Picked up this cretinous looking thing for keen coin as it has no engine,
but anything that's there is in good shape.

So the plan is
Goodbye to everthing but the frame, swingarm and shock.

Hello to a std bottom end.
Cyl head, bodies and wiring off an 02/3 injected R1, std full Bodykit and some 05 on R1 wheels and forks.

It'll be slow, but watch this space.

So
The 5vy rear wheel fits straight in, I used the 5jj spindle, sprocket carrier and caliper mount/spacer but I'll have to do a small mod to the 5jj caliper to let it in a bit to centre on the disc.


Another thing crossed off the
"what will fit list"

Next piece of the jigsaw done.
4xv yokes with the 5vy radial caliper forks done.

Fitted like they belong there.

Next is sourcing some wheels so I can move it about.

So, i have to use a 5pw head as their inlet ports are bigger to obviously suit the throttle bodies.

See the difference in the pics

Well that's the motor in.
Wasn't too bad considering I had no help to do it.

Wee update as I've been busy with work, life, etc.
Got body kit, lights sorted eventually.
Absolute nightmare getting bits that's are not fooked.

Still a lot to do.

But I will get there

In spite of an imminent house move which resulted in me moving my bikes to a small lock up, i still got a few things done.

Fitted a 5pw undertray so the electrics sit as they should.


Had to cut the back of the tray to fit the 5jj subframe.


Have this coming of ebay to tidy up the underside


Mounted the 5VY clocks and they sit like they belong there.
Still in two minds wheather to go with the straight bars or clipons as i cannot get the bar position right not to clout the top fairing, and i aint choping the fairing.


Although behind the scene it looks a bit of a bodge but works and the final fit will be rubber mounted with stainless bolts


Unless i can get a clock loom for a 5pw at sensible money, it'll be out with the machete to make the 5jj clock loom work on the 5pw main loom




Sourced a set of tokico calipers of a GSXR1000L1

Ok.
So this project has been abandoned due to loosing my storage space.
Its being broke and all is for sale.

Gimmie a shout if anything tickles your fancy
