Re: covering a large tank dent FZR1000 Genesis.

Hi George,

It's good advice bud but then my tank will look "stock" and not custom. I'm a joiner by trade but fancy having a go at metalwork to see what I can create. If it all goes pete tong its an option to put it right tho...

covering a large tank dent FZR1000 Genesis.

Hi all, got a big dent in my tank and decided to cover it and make a mod out of it at the same time. Bought a leaky tank from ebay and set about cutting it up. I have managed to make 2 side panels that will cover the bashed bit. http://fzronline.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_ite...

Re: r6 to genesis swingarm swap

i think we need to find the dimensions and go from there, see how far off they are, if at all, and find a good machinist.

r6 to genesis swingarm swap

Hi all,

has anyone tried to fit an R6 swingarm to an FZR1000 genesis?

If so, was it worth it and how hard was it to do?

thanks,

Mac.
