I agree with the r7 bodywork.
BUT
1) I couldn't find any
2) I like better the r6 tail!!!

But you 've got me in ideas guys!!! Next project.... will probably have r7 bodywork.

I put them in a liquid carburator cleaner by Mikuni. It's 1lt of carb cleaner and you disolve it in 10lt of water. Next week i'll post pics to show you how they are now!!!

I had an idea(1 one in a very long time) The holes in the R1 faring dos not match the FZR motor. If it was my bike I would cover the existing holes and make some new ones that matches the motor better. Keep up the good work,it looks amassing so far!!!

You are right!!!! I'll do it. (The fairings are R6 though) That was on my mind those last days. But i needed someone to tell me THAT. So, i'll do it. Thanks for the advice :cheers:

this was my original plans before I got the r1 fairings.
I wanted to make my own custom fairings so it wasnt like "is that an r1?"
I would rather tell people its a custom build.
thinking of using the existing fairings and fiberglassing more onto them to cover the hole side, then I can put "660" on the side so its more ducati like without actually being one. it would still seem just as nice as one though.

I have to cover this empty place of the lower fairing. I made 2 plates to support it.
Image

And then cover it with polyester.
Image

I also draw the lines. This will help me on the paintwork.
Image

And today i put the clip-ons

I have a problem though. There's no space left for the levers (clutch and brake). Any ideas???

Do you have experiance with that gauge? I like mine but I would not buy another one. Get the bike running first before you hook the gauge to the wire harness. With a bad battery and probably a bad VR, it fired a circuit in the gauge somewhere when I was trying to get the bike started up.
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....
