My FZR/YZF600/R6 Project is ready to take off!

Post by torvalen »

Hi
I’ve read a lot of the modification threads in this forum, and some time ago I decided that I would go for a major modification of my newly bought FZR 600 1992. I'm past fifty, but I love to mess with bikes and I love to ride them.
I have spent quite a lot of money on the UK an German EBAY, but now I think that I have got the most important parts for my modification.
Here’s what I have bought.
YZF 600 swing arm
YZF 600 Wheels
YZF 600 tank
Airtech YZF600 fender hugger
FZR 600 R White Power golden forks
FZR 600 R Yokes (looks like shit)
A complete R6 2008 fairing with lights, blinkers, seats, mirrors (from a bike turned into a racer)
I’ve spent around 1000 bucks (600 for the fairing). The only thing left is to tell my wife about it :whistle

I’ve also bought a little second hand CO2 welding machine. I think I’m gonna need it!
Looks like I’m gonna spend a lot of time in my little workshop this winter.
If anyone is interested I will post regularly about the progress of the project and my experiences.

I will certainly post for help when I get stuck :headscratch:

Yes, lots of pics please. Sounds like an interesting build. Good luck and keep us updated regularly.
Yes, that is a Single Sided Swingarm FZR600 that I built.

Something is lurking, waiting, wanting to be built......It calls to me from the darkness....

I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel....Then I realize that it is the train coming to run my ass over....

you might want to see if you can get a fairing stay as well it will make your life alot easier, on mounting the upper and lights.

Are you going with the 08 guages too?
