[shredex]

never showed anyone how my tail has been mounted.

the only thing holding it on is the tabs slid under the tabs on the fzr frame. the tail light. and the rear seat holding it down.


strap is from bottom of rear seat

tool bag!

didnt need to cut all that off




shock pics


dash

some damage that was done when fell in trailer a while back


alot more than that though....still holds up at top speed still.

Your bike looks really good on the road. The tom cruise top gun glasses need updated though!!

I would like to see those gauges mounted correctly and made functional. If not add a Vaypor gauge to your list

Shred's DIY Ignition advancer outcome.

screws wouldnt come out.
ended up drilling them out and had the bit move on me so its f**ked


noticed the engine case had mounts as well. so I drilled and taped them. then tap broke.


ground off the flange things and then tried grinding the holes wider...failed...so I used my drill bit and pushed the bit sideways in hole until it cut away what I wanted


some nice chrome screws for mounting the sensor and other things that I got for free


installed!

fugly...

[shredex]

the brake side of my upper finally snapped after doing one to many clutch ups.
my headlight tabs have been broken to the light has just been flopping in there.
so I finally grabbed some zip-ties I had lying around and zipped her up!

toolbag

my bikes alot uglier than people think

Where'd you get those screws from

[shredex]

Where'd you get those screws from

R&B motorcycles down the street from me.
I know the guy well.
they cost like $5 damn bucks for that little box!
I handed him a $10 to break it and he handed it back and said merry christmas (this was a week ago)

can probably find them online. I would like some red ones, or black

The only 2 things that kill me about the bike are how the exhaust sticks out and the 18" rim in the back.......time to get that swinger/rim swap in there

the exhaust doesnt stick out anymore, I twisted the mid pipe and wala!


I was actually planning on doing just a gsxr rim swap.
I dont mind only having a 160. I dont need the 180

My main huge ticket is paid off.
so now I just need to pay one court fee, and the bank and im debt free!
thatll be another month or so before thats all paid though.
then I can save save save and move myself to future!
but school starts very soon so might be longer than one month :C

SS=stainless steel. Home Depot doesn't seem to sell Metric in my area....

to be honest, Im not sure if mine does either .
the metric bolts I use I stole from my metal machinist.
not sure if these Screwed Industries screws are stainless. I can only find something online that says "made with top quality steel"
they look chrome though.
