Heres some pics similar to what I want to do with this build. I like this first one except for the huge gap between the seat and tire. I know that lowering it will change the ride but I'm not looking to race it or take cross country trips on it. This one is the most like what Im thinking except I'd lower the rear, and I'm going to keep the front fender. Mabey fab up some V-Max style scoops for the radiators. Have some classic red paint on it. Maybe some barend mirrors. I kind of like these 2 the one on the right is actually an RC51. I like the exhaust on this but I dont think the V-Twin will run to well with something like this or will be too loud. I want it to kind of have an old school look like this just aggressive like a sportbike. Well thats pretty much where my ideas are at right now to give you an idea. I know its the opposite of what everyone else thinks will be sweet but I dont care its what I want not others.

What type of things? The first thing I want to do is get it running good. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

There are quite a few radiator relocation kits out there but I don't want to get that indepth right off the rip. I kind of like the radiators standing out like they do. The colors I'm thinking are flat black and red like the old school hotrods. I can't find any pictures of what I want to do but it will def. be one of a kind.

I haven't looked at it too much but I think the stock headlights will look badass without the fairing if I can mount them up. They look real aggressive and would look cool with the intake still there. Not to sure but I already have them so it will save $ and if it looks like crap ill sell em.

The reason I was thinking of the ballistic battery is because I'm thinking of chopping the tail pretty much off. Kind of a bobber look. The smaller battery will give me more room to relocate the electronics. I'll try to find a picture of what I'm thinking of doing with it.

I'd love to have it as a track bike also but Im missing having a street bike more. Down here the weather is good enough to ride in most days of the week.

I am looking to purchase some literature on how to work on my rc51 but what do you get with the different manuals? Shop, Parts, Service and Repair?

I will def. post pics but I wouldn't say Im recreating a classic. I would call it unfucking a mistreated bike on a budget. lol. Im planning on trying to chop the tail and making it look similar to a bobber. Then I want to paint it flat black with some flat red accent for the classic hot rod look. But first I need to get it ridable. I don't know if I going to try to use the stock headlights or sell them if I find better option. Thanks guys I think the name of the battery im thinking of is called Ballistic Performance.

Well I just purchased an 01 RC51 for $900. Its pretty BTS so I'm going to get it running and turn it into a streetfighter. Does anyone know where I can buy one of those slim batteries? I cant remember what there name is but they are pretty sweet I believe they are red. I know ridersdiscount sells them but I'm border line tarded when it comes to the interwebz and all I can find on their site is clothing. Do you know what the cost runs on one? Also does anyone know where I can get some frontbrake and clutch fluid reservoirs? All I can find online is full master cylinders or resevoir socks and caps, neither of which I need.

I got a title and bill of sale from the guy and I'm taking to AZ. My friends from there say there is no problem titling out of states titles even if they are salvage.

Well I picked it up today for $900.

Nope the title is all Im waiting to check out the guy said its at his moms house. I told him to call me when he got it. He said the numbers matched so as long as they do I should pick this bike up soon.

Went to check this bike out today at the guys work. Told him the best I'd do is $900. He said he'd take it. Now I just got to get a truck and line our schedules up to pick it up.
