How long 'till I flip this one?

[mossy1200]

Okay.

Let's custom this fucker!
Rat/bob/cafe thing?
Not too keen on having a loud pipe though lol

EDIT: Bare metal tank...




I'm currently looking at getting the cheapest, shittiest pile of crap as a commuter and my only conditions are:
Uber cheap, uber simple (I already have a bike that's fast and needs work ) and cheap to fix.
What it has to do; take me to Te Puke from the Mnawatu and I don't care if I do 90 the whole way...it'll be cheap

nah couldn't do slash cuts, it would be a can, but slash cut exits for a good look, reckon take the header under and loop it back through; a bit like the panigale

I have a sickness, it's called "fuckingmodifyeverythingevenaGN250", Latin name I think.

This could work.
It has two header pipes, this is because 22hp is very hard to control.

Hmmmmm (stolen from Customfighters.com)

Bro I had one of these and rode it from Auck to Cape Reinga and back.[ equivalent]
They will do mean skids on 90 mile beach!
I had a ball and at no time did I feel like I was gonna be thrown off! However if you are worried, I suggest you don't open the throttle all the way.

I had a Chinker made one years ago, was the most uninspiring and sensible thing I have ever owned.
Full throttle is quite intense on these, nearly went up a fucking hill on a GN once...

I'm picking it up tomorrow, if I can put up with it for the 110km ride home I will give myself a high five.

It'll do a skid

Oh yeah, the wire wheels! Mine was too.
2 words bro, NOS kit!

947cc kit, I'll make it out of a steel bucket in the shed and fork tube for a rod, NOS will be the first bloody thing mate

I predict it will be annoyingly reliabile, especially compared to the project bike.

And you'll end up liking it, and crying yourself to sleep at night with the guilt.

[tigertim20]

flat track it, but if you do, I want to see photos of it sideways.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!!! Keep it simple man! None of that flash shit!

10-4 rubber ducky!

Oh God...I'm tearing up now

So no DOHC conversions, and most certainly no chromed grease nipples?
(speaking of, I polished the grease nipples on the ZX6 lower linkage)

I'll take $10 on tuckin the front... although I'd say go ape hangers and not drop bars

Geoff is home now! His air filter was completely fucked, so Bogan and I (mainly my dodgy idea...) taped a bit of foam to the filter frame, good bye miss-fire.
Rides well for a GN and is actually comfier than my 04 model was. Every time I open the throttle it makes me giggle, becuase it makes noise and nothing happens.
The brakes feel like a cave man rubbing his dick on a vaseline smeared frogs back, in the rain, during monsoon season, under a very bright light. So, they don't work so well.


I like Geoff, he's cool.
He likes his younger sibling, they're getting on well.


Interestingly, it seems like all the chrome work except the 'zorst is fuckin' mint! Have already got a few test spots done with the autosol and the brightwork is going to be a walk in the park! Yay for Japanese made GNs...
