Time for a photo of a VTR.....
WOW !!!! OMG ... where did you manage to find those Moriwaki Zero Titanium exhausts ???
Those things are as rare as Hens teeth... You are gonna wet yourself when you learn what those pipes use to cost in Japan...
I tried for years to find a secondhand set... you just dont get them anymore.
**edit... oh just a photo... for a min I thought that was your bike... that bike is really sorted in all respects... even the rear shock...
Not mine, no. Belongs to a guy in the UK. Along with 2 of the stage 3 Moriwaki race bikes.....
Set of those pipes came up on Japan E Bay last week for $700 used. Gone now.
Don't get me started on mods, we will be here all weekend. Ive done a few. But on shocks, im making do with an Ohlins....
Go on..love hearing what other modaholics have done to there bikes,never spent any time on a VTR,no other reason than i just fell in love with a TLS first.Whats the front end like and anyone transplated the likes of an SP front end on one if theres any advantage to doing so?
Be the person your dog thinks you are...
How about a Hyosung GT250R? Great bikes.
If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.
Oh, why not.
Depaired, US model that came with emissions. Opened up snorkel. Dr Honda alloy velocity stacks. Rejet idles and lift needles. HRC mod to slides. Thumbscrew idle mixture screws(brilliant). Carb heater delete. Coil on cap, fitted CBR600rr coils. Manual cam chain tensioners. +1 or -1 front sprockets depending on track or commuting. Cut out front sprocket cover. .95 racetech fork springs, racetech gold valves and raised oil height. Ohlins rear with 1000lb spring. 5mm shim under rear shock and fork tubes lifted 3mm. Roller bearing conversion to head bearings. Race pads in front brakes. Speedo healer. Long vac hoses for carb balancing without removing tank or airbox.
I will have forgotten things.
I believe SP forks and some CBR1000 forks go right in with a handlebar change. Something I would like to do but the cost out weighs the benefit. Bike handles well and if good fun on the track. New forks would help the front but Im not out riding what the bike can do so no point. Yet.....
Next on the list is some K1 Gixxer 3 pot calipers.
Built for speed, not for comfort
