OK...I have been pushing on this to get it wrapped up. I swore after doing my 08 with all the mods and stuff that I would not make that mistake again. Don't get me wrong, I love mods...but if you ever think about running hard on the twisties...you run the chance at making a lot of EBay parts out of a good bike.
Well this is an interim update. Front forks installed, front bracket installed, gauges installed, frame straightened, sub frame installed, new 06 gas tank installed, wiring repaired where needed, new 4-2-1 header (my own creation) and pipe installed, rear wheel installed going to get the front tire mounted on the new rim, CF mirrors arrived today, new tail assembly arrived today and will go on tomorrow...oh yeah...turned her over today!!! I initially showed an F1 light, but not everything is installed, so I am assuming that once I get all the electrical installed that may clear up??? We will cross that bridge when we get there. So far I only have about 2100 invested into this bike (including the cost of the bike) pays to shop around! I am down to having to redo the paint on the side panels and front fairing and she will be hitting the street. I must say now having a Gen I, these are such cool bikes. I love my Gen II, but the Gen I's are just killer!
If you are wondering, with the Gen I and II having the same frame, many of my stock take off parts from my Gen II build have been able to be used on this rebuild. I will post more pictures tomorrow...hopefully...
