    See your bike´s got fibreglass body, do you know how made it? I have seen most of the parts from Chuck at Cobolt racing and think they are allright, just still waiting for him to reply. What model is your bike? ´86-´89?

    its an 87 vfr700f2 with every piece of the body (except the tank and the front fender) being brand new, and the whole thing just got a new custom paint job with custom graphics stenciled on.

    the carbon fiber windscreen, fiberglass upper, and fiberglass single seat tail are all made by Chuck Crites with Cobalt Racing. People can say what they want about the man, but one undeniable fact is that he does amazing fiberglass and carbon fiber work. as you can see on my bike, the quality and asthetics really speak for themselves. You may and may not be able to see in the gallery pics. but I also bought a set of lower fairing mounts from Crites too.

    the lowers are brand new Lockhart Philips lowers that i scored a while back, as well and the flush mount turn signals are Lockhart Philips as well.

    The levers are just carbon look knockoffs that I found on ebay. they may be cheap, but they work and fit just fine, and go with the carbon trim of the bike.

    The exhaust is a Laser 4-2-1 deeptone Pro D'Or. Laser is the ONLY company who still makes current production exhaust for this model of vfr.

    As for motor work, all Ive done is install a stage 2 dynojet kit, and drilled the airbox lid as well as removing the snorkel from the front of the lid, and then I threw in a k&n air filter to help the motor breathe.

    what's really bad about this bike, is that im not anywhere near done with it. theres still the matter of suspension mods adn CBR wheels that are in store for this one.....
