Default newest project

picked this up the other day, though it didn't look like this when i got it.
mods so far:
ditched the tube bars for cbr600 clip-ons
removed guages
re-wired front to back
cut the subframe all to hell
fitted ducati monster seat/tail
removed everything else that's not needed (signals, inner fender, hugger, etc)

still to do:
PAINT!! i hate that yellow. it's going black.
swap fork lowers with cbr600f3 lowers so i can run a dual disk cbr front rim/brakes
install sv650 swingarm with a gsxr600 shock
cbr600f3 rear wheel (1" wider than what's on it now, and it'll match the front)
make mounts for small twin headlights (very small)
get a small tail light and make mounts for it
make hi-mount exhaust midpipe and get a new muffler
stage 3 jetting/pod filters
120/160 tires
revalve/respring forks

future list:
dual intake cams (should be very soon)
442cc hi compression piston kit
mild port work
build slightly bigger diameter headers (unless i can find some for it somewhere)
re=worked 34mm gsxr750 carbs

most of ya'll here have probably never seen one of these, but it's a 91 bandit 400. plan on using it for some track days and tearing up back roads (and embarassing a few bigger bikes )

yes, it's parked in my living room, heheheh

Damn I just spent that much on a paintball gun. Shit, I might buy a piece of crap bike and do some shit like that to it. What should I get?

Let me know if you want some brake calipers front and/or rear from a 636 mint condition. I have no use for them.

we'll see, but that's definatly a possibility. like i said, i even thought about stunting the 400, but i'd have to build a cage from scratch, and well, i just don't feel like it. i did get my 905 cage for the 954 welded up though, so it's ready to back on.

it doesn't matter what you get, you do the work and make it your own, screw what everyone else says. you don't even wanna know the comments i've gotten from people about buying a 400cc 55hp bike that's 16 years old.
