Re: GSXR CONVERSION

Out with the old and in with the new. Rode a few corners on the streets - rear end nice and firm and can tell I'll be able to get on the gas without the thing losing it's line or bouncing all over the place. Standard front end is suffering though... need to hurry up and sort it - although having a c...

I use delo 400 multigrade. SAE15W-40.

Re: A Canary Cafe Racer

I'm going to try to do mine like this - make an aluminium plate to fit to the existing mounting points and bolt rearssets from an r6/gsxr to the plate - with multiple position options.

Re: A Canary Cafe Racer

What model ducati rearstes are they?

Re: Heading to Philip Island

Re: A Canary Cafe Racer

This is not my bike - it is a picture of a bike that I think was raced in the UK. Very successful. I'm trying to build one up similar to that photo to race in Australia. Yes, I believe that is a proper air intake setup - they've enclosed under the tank too. I'm just going to focus on suspension to b...
