thats a good wee project you've got a head of you!, that tank looks FUCKED! it would be cheaper to get a secondhand one rather than repair it ( unless you've got a good mate whos handy with CIG)

the subframe may be a mission!

the exhaust isn't too bad, at least the headers are intact, an idea would be get a supertrapp or similar that would fit in there nice & neat.

heres a pic from a mag for some ideas

i want some lights similar to the speed triples....

wonder how much they will cost?

S3 lights as an aftermarket item are in excess of $300 I believe. Go to www.sportsbikesnz.co.nz and have a look there. Apparently you can just get 'standard bates' style lights, but I dont know where.

2 - 2.5 inch mmmm rite! ok! the junction pipe maybe 2inch but the rest isn't the headers at best would be 1 3/8inch.

NTV400 tank is the same the whole bikes the same apart from obvious capacity difference

WTF do i do here???? is this fixable? if so how do i bend it???

thanks for the linky skel but the lights they have are too much, might ask a wreckers....

If it's steel , and not heat treated, you can heat it up with a gas torch and bend it straight. But you'll need either a jig, or at the very least a straight one to use as a template.
