That's look like it has a lot of potential, you going to do anything with it?

That is very nice.

I like the lines where the builder has lost the heavy grab rail and neatened the lines up a bit. The 1st one I spotted like this was one built a few years back in Streetfighters magazine and then Mr Strangewayz did similar with his EFE. Nice.

It kind of brings the bike upto date and looking a bit more modern.

last winter i modified that frame with my mate Igor, now he sold me everything because he has no time to finish it. I might one day rebuild it but i'm not sure.

Ive just made notes of captain Chaos' diagrams for making my mounts.
Any chance of a pic please of where the steady bracket goes? It has not got one on my GSXR engine,so im not sure where it goes?
Thank you.

what bracket?

by **dixiethedog** » Thu Mar 28, 2013 8:48 pm

The brace bracket. The ones that look like a top engine support maybe? I wasnt going to bother to be honest,but if they add strength maybe i should?
Ive made some alloy engine mounts to fasten the engine in,but havent yet done the ones that need welding to the frame. The frames just been powdercoated... :roll:
