Thanks. The swingarm is from a '91 VFR. It's not that it's prohibitively difficult to do, it's just that there are so many other systems to...
Looks very race. Nice to have a machinist friend! At first I thought the sprocket might not come off but later photos clearly show how much was...
Looks like you're making some head way. I'm sure it's an optical illusion but the front wheel looks awfully close to the front valve cover even...
Here's an R motor in a sand rail. Nice job making it look professional. [IMG]
The R has an extra motor mount on the front heads, down slightly from the spark plug. Also, the plumbing for the thermostat is on the right side...
If you MUST have a stock looking signal, these look better than the originals by far.
It will serve you well. It sure looks nice. I love the look of the R and have since I first drove it from the dealer in 1985. Park it next to a...
The Mag numbers are by staff writers/riders not professional drag racers, but still more competent than any of us. Remember, the R is giving the...
Curious as to which tests you got that info. I had every bike mag from those years and never saw the R run better than low-mid 11's and some had...
That thing is remarkable.
Good God! Numbers on the front fairing? Who are they trying to impress anyway?:wink: Welcome. Looking forward to following the process to set...
Maybe try HRCialis.
It's difficult to strip these bikes and make it look good. You did a real nice job and your skills show. Enjoy.
Welcome. I so wish I had my '83 V45 'Ceptor back. Enjoy. Looks like your just the guy to make me a custom triple clamp!:biggrin:
I wasn't sure if someone in the bike building world or just common sense led you to use a beefy plate but IMO, it's a smart move. I never had a...
That ACTUALLY made me laugh out loud! Good one.:thumbsup:
It probably was the lighting. Sounds thick enough to actually do something, what made you go with 1/4"? Jamie thinks you can use some tin foil...
I have an R motor in an F frame. It's very, VERY tight but doable. The rear valve cover can't be removed once the motor is in and it's less than a...
I'm quite sure there are millions of examples from airplanes to mobile homes where a skinned structure is more sound than one with out, doesn't...
Add a 9x4" piece of 16g metal to that spot and I bet nothing but the most sensitive measuring device could detect any change in twisting action of...
