Hey gonna revive this old thread as I finally started getting back into messing with the bike. I've made a few more changes recently which I haven't put up here, the biggest change being getting rid of the whole stock exhaust system, from headers through to the tip. I've installed a complete...

Finished And so this is the end result, for now. Still got a few little things to do but the major stuff is done, I'm really happy with how it turned out, the bike is looking mint and pretty unique. The tank is looking pretty bare so I might get a big red Yamaha tuning fork logo sprayed on...

Time to put humpty together again. So remember how I didn't do an organised strip down? yeh this became a bit of a pain during the rebuild, but in the end I found most if not all the bits I needed and got it all back together. A couple of times I came across odd looking plugs and washers...

droppin dollar dollar bills So I wanted to try order as much as I could within Australia to support home business but did have to get a couple of things from the U.S and also bought a flyscreen faring from China that in the end I did not use. I sourced most of the parts from...

So about 18 months ago I layed the bike down on its side around a bend and scratched the bike and cracked the front fairing, I ripped all the fairings off and then used a hacksaw to cut down the headlight fairing. Essentially doing the cheapest crappest naked conversion out there, resigning to...

Haha yeh don't think a turbos in the plans at this stage

New Hey just joined the site, currently giving my 2013 fz6r a big makeover, layed the bike down about 18months ago and cracked some fairings and some typical damage to bar ends and stator cover, had removed all the fairing and just hacksaws the fairing around the headlight leaving the bike...
