Mine is still as my profile but have just got V&H pipes on it, loving the look, just getting used to the noise
.
Have a few other bits to put on as well
Photos to come when we have a fine ish day
Have to say blinging bikes is a bit addictive
Not the lastest but a couple of my favorites.
This one's mine ... I've spent hours and hours on it ... RIDING ...
Just changed the pannier system to Givi ...
The forward pegs were a temporary thing for a Chatto Creek 1000 miler rally ... about five years ago ... They're comfortable to use and I cant be bothered changing them ...
Other than that ... everything is standard ...
When life throws you a curve ... Lean into it ...
has a few bits added. Doesnt have factory indicators and taillight now, replaces with LEDs
Daytona cams, modded airbox with K&N filter and custom built Harris pipes, Nology profire coils and high spec leads have lifted the power from 82 at the crank to 90 at the wheel and a flat torque curve with 56 ft lb, peak torque at just shy of 4500 rpm and 48 ft lb at 2000 rpm so it pulls hard in any gear.
Standard suspension and brakes as it seems to work fine although I will be adding braided lines soon.
I bobbed the rear guard and will powdercoating black triple clamps etc and as soon as the weather warms up I'll get my spray gun out and repaint it, thinking of flames or just a pearl on black. I'll be removing the front guard and wrapping the headers and flatter bars with possibly smaller clocks, aiming for a modern cafe racer feel. That should do for the time being.
Then I'll start on my BMW Airhead. At this stage I'll get it running and vinned, then I'm thinking bobber or similar...
Don't blame me, I voted Green.
The latest bike...
There's also an 84 pop-up Katana and an RF900R in the garage.
this one's a 2008 Suzuki GSF1250S (Bandit).
And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

This one is a keeper. 2002 GSXR1000, LS replica graphics (done by myself and imdying) and paint, ohlins rear shock and damper, racetech front springs and valves, yoshi engine management, yoshi gt meter, yoshi tail pipe, brembo front calipers, crescent suzuki rearsets, single clip-on conversion, pazzo front brake lever and crg clutch lever. 159rwhp and 81ft/lbs torque.
Thats a nice machine, definitely a keeper!
There's alot of Kawasaki's out there I've noticed, and here I was thinking everyone owned a GSXR.
Speeking of which, props to you onearmedbandit, me being a noob thought your username was just that, a username.
Don't suppose you ride motards aswell......
Awesome to see such clean and well looked after bikes considering our roads are filthy paint destroyers
Keep em coming![]()
