[tampaFZR600]

ugh, got the harness in and the carbs fixed up today....Also put in the spacers for the pegs and brake master....Turns out the heel guards are gonna need spacers too....

Coming along nicely for having to go to a friends shop to work on it. Can't wait to see the bike with all the fairings on it. Have you figured out a tail to use yet?

Yea, i really don't like FZR's naked, I love the side fairings, and the single headlight.

Tail wise i'm really not sure. I guess I've decided not to keep her stock tail until I get it up and running for a while. Thinking of going with the poor mans integrated tail<---anyone know how well that works for the stock tail?

I still like to think I'm gonna do the 99-02 r6 tail as much as it may be played out.... I think it's the best looking on the fzr, especially with the larger tire.

So i was gonna follow the wiki VR mod.... when i noticed how much more complicated it is than it needs to be....

here is my simple way....And i'm only posting up pictures b/c i just wrote a whole write-up for it, and then my computer crashed!!! AHHH!!! wow that really pissed me off..... anyway here is the final product, I used the STOCK mount points, so no drilling or cutting needed! Just splice the stock wires, crimp on some felmales and a 1/4" ring connector and a longer ground screw, and BOOM your done!

[tampaFZR600]

Very clean! Now go ride.

psssh,
i wish my friend!

I have about 10 more things to finish up on this baby and then its ride time!

I also trimmed up the rear fairing to make it look a little more sleek. More pix soon.

[tampaFZR600]

Made shorter dog bones yesterday, i'll post up some pix lata

[tampaFZR600]

Cut off my sidebars on the tail and put the front sprocket on. The bolt idea is perfect to keep'r on....

nice nice, if you need bleeding help/sync help. I can help yyou out on those...iv bleed my brakes a few times...and iv got a 60cc syringe to make the bleedign go by faster! unless you friend has a vacuum pump in his garage somewhere

[tampaFZR600]

Well, she's ridable!!! I took it around the block today and it feels SOOO nice, need to tweak the carbs a little, but who doesn't....
Yesterday we sync'd the carbs and bled the brakes.
Today we finished up the exhaust and hooked up the gas tank. I also had to boil my velocity stacks again to get them to fit over the carbs...
Now I guess it's on to cosmetics!
I'll get more pics, but these are from yesterday....

[shredex]

you have V-stacks on it?

btw, where did you get the 112.5 mains?

I just meant the stock rubber v-stacks

I got the mains from Cahills, had to special order them and the f*ck took forever....

Find yourself a radial front master cylinder from an 07 R6 to better compliment those YZF calipers...you'll thank me later...otherwise good progress you are making on the bike.
