I've got a wee wishlist for my 86 GSXR1100 that goes something like this...

New Dash maybe with GPS aswell
Flush indicators front and rear
New brakes (assembly and all)
number plate and rear light customised
side panels cut away to reveal back wheel and gap
Custom air filter/s
magnetic tank bag
And touring bag for back seat

So if your out there and youve got the ideas or just a web address of good aftermarket parts suppliers, I'd be lovin it...cheers. D from ChCh

What sort of time frame and budget buddy? How do you feel about DIY, or are you going to take the cheque book route?

I'd say it will be a bit of both, I'm keen to do a bida DIY as long as I know what I'm doing.
Not so sure about how to re shape the plastics though, so if anyones got ideas about that, I'd like to hear em!

Cheers.

Pity their site doesnt work too well but, yeah can see the potential, I'd love to be able to put a whole new rear end on it, that'd rock, I reckon if you cut away some of the side panels to reveal the rear wheel a bit more, and got rid of the number plate bracket, which is a whole lotta metal just to hold a plate on, and maybe a pack rack, it will look fucken cool.
