As most of you know, both me and my 05 Gixxer took a detour out through the bushes at about 70 knots. I was full race leathers and didn't get a mark on me but my poor Gixxer looked pretty sad when I took her home. Didn't hurt the bike itself but the plastic really took a beating. Everything got barked up except for the left lower side panel.
So, I got myself some plastic weld and went to work. After buying a few pieces off ebay and welding the rest up, I now have her road ready! I crashed it on September 30th and bought a new K6 that same week. Just couldn't stand the thought of being without a gixxer for long! So I've spent the past few months aquiring parts and pieces through ebay as well as a fairing stay and subframe extention from my dealer. I actually have less than a grand into putting her back on the road. Now I have a great stunt/track bike. I dropped one tooth up front and two up on the rear. I'm ready to Rock & Roll!
