Looks good. I like the color scheme. How does the tape graphics look in person compared to the pictures? In the pictures it looks suttal as in does not stand out like a sore thumb.

Nicely done. Brackets for the fairings blend in very well. Now get building another with that other frame laying in the background. :)

Very nice conversion. The graphics need to go, look very cheap and poorly installed(sorry). Other than that its a sick bike. More pictures of the rx-7 though.

can you show pics of how you have the fairing stay mounted???
the way i think you have it mounted would cause the front fairing to be not center, but it looks center...
the r1 has a center mount stay, the fzr is a off-center mount...the center on the fzr is the steering stopper located right under the stay mount

Very nice. Wheel swap? Swinger swap? Fork swap?

i know wat you are talking about. what i did was bolted two thick aluminum plate to the front fairing mount of the r1, then i used two small plastic spacer when bolted to the fzr frame. i try my best to get it to center. anyway, i might do a write up soon.

here is my situation, i went to the dmv today to register the hybrid fzr but they say i could not because i dont have the title of it. The bike has been transfer to severral owner before me and non of them registered the bike since 06. they had no bill of sale, nothing. i dont have the bill of sale either. I orginally bought the bike for part and decided to built it up into this, and cant registed it. DAMIT. so I cant registered the bike.
my solution, i am going to transfer everything from this frame to the black frame i had laying in the garage, which had a title. If i do this swap. i am going to do a write up for it as well.

any suggestion from anybody would be great. i welcome.

This all depends on what state you live in. First call your insurance company and get them to look up the VIN number. You want to make sure there is not a lien or salvage title attached to it. If it comes back clear, go down to the DMV when they are not busy and find someone who looks willing to listen and help. just explain that you are thinking about buying this bike but it does not seam to have a title and ask how to go about fixing the problem.

In some states, this is really easy to fix. In other states, you are just plain screwed.
