I still have the one I e-mailed you pics of the last time you were looking. Later, Doug

TTT I am possibly looking to trade for another oil-cooled Gsxr, Zrx11/12, Fz1, B12, and even a V-Max. Later, Doug

I have no progress to report as I've been battling Joel's (NeverEnough) car's starter off and on for the last week and a half. I swear if I see the so called "engineer" that designed the car I'm gonna punch them in the throat. I did however get word that my 4-2-1 exhaust header is on its way from Canada along with a spare oil cooler and lines to replace the mid-pipe the seller couldn't find. As soon as Joel's car is out of the drive, I'm back to the Gsxr. Later, Doug

I'd like to sell outright but I will entertain trade offers. I'm possibly after a '98+ Zx9 or similar. Later, Doug

Pics from today... Later, Doug

No idea. I bought the bike from a guy who only owned it a month at 18xxx miles. I do have a set of brand new belts that will be included with the bike. Later, Doug

Hey, I'm thinking of selling my Monster to help fund the completion of my Gsxr and put some money in the bank. The bike: '99 M900 City ~23,200miles (will change as I do still ride it) Cored exhaust and rejetted carbs ContiMotion tires (less than 500 miles ago) New chain (less than 2,000 miles ago) Shorai lightweight battery Superbike bars Barend mirrors Integrated LED tail light (tinted red) LED front turn signals Forks resealed and oil changed (4,000 miles ago) Newer front brake pads (4,000 miles ago) New rear pads (in package) New Ducati timing belts (in package) Fresh oil and filter change 14T (-1) front sprocket The bad: It lead a hard life before I got it. The whole bike could use a good cleaning. Bodywork is less than great (5/10). The previous conventional battery puked all over the frame, under the gas tank, and down the engine leaving behind flaking paint and corrosion. Non-OEM starter solenoid. Broken front brake lever I have a few extras that I would be willing to part with for some extra costs: Original "City" handlebars Original Mandarina Duck bags and hardware Vented belt covers Extra Clutch cover SS clutch spring kit Steering damper Seat Cowl I have a clean Ohio title in my name with no leins. I think I covered everything. Located in Akron, Ohio. Looking for $3,000 OBO. PM, email (magrimsATyahoo.com), or text (Three30-Three29-Nine525) (Pics from when I first got it. I'll try to get some more recent pics soon.) Later, Doug

According to the parts diagram on MotoSport.com there should be gaskets that slip over the head pipe and then inside the muffler. It sounds like you're missing those gaskets. Later, Doug

Is anyone heading to Dragway42 tomorrow? I'm planning on going and running. I'll be the only one there using a Subaru STi as a tow vehicle. Later, Doug

I was able to relocate the ignition switch last night. I had to move it since I cut the loop and lugs off the upper triple so I could tuck the gauges in closer. I still need to paint it with black Rustoleum but at least it's fabbed. Later, Doug

My one buddy has some awesome portrait tattoo's done by Jessica Haney from My Museum Tattoo Studio in Dover. I can't vouch for her personally but they look amazing. Later, Doug

I've been working on a couple bikes on the side so I haven't done much to the Gsxr. But the side jobs have provided me with a little money. So to celebrate I had my front turn signal buckets and fairing stay powder coated black. These should almost button up the front end except for painting the fender brackets, bleeding the brakes, swapping in newer controls, routing wiring, and painting the fender and fairing. Hopefully, I get the extra bike finished and return my priorities back to the Gsxr soon. Oh, I also have a4-2-1 header (made by Hindle, I think) and some D&D mufflers on the way. I don't really want to damage my nice SS Supertrapp exhaust if something happens. Later, Doug

I made a to-do list and I'm slowly working through it. Other than maybe modding the stock Zrx turn signal mounts, the front fairing stay is done. I fabbed and added a small bracket to hold the headlight relays and another bracket to relocate the horn from underneath the Gsxr triple to behind the fairing. I sold my stock rear inner fender halves thinking that I would not need them again since I wanted to chop the subframe....well, I was wrong. Since I'm keeping the stock subframe for this riding season, I needed something. I made a crude cardboard template and transferred it to a sheet of 1/8" thick aluminum and keep going from there. I was able to cross off a few of my goals but I still have about 20 left. Later, Doug

It was such a nice day, that I had to pull the bike out of the garage to see how it looks from a distance. I threw on the solo tail as I don't think that I'm going to meet my self set deadline if I hack off the subframe at this time. Later, Doug

Between yesterday and today I was able to mount up my new black superbike handlebars along with drilling holes for the switch gear. I'm waiting on a 2nd gen SV650 clutch perch to permanently glue on the left grip. When I tried to install the upper triple my gauge bracket hit before the triple was completely seated. I had a feeling that it could happen when I made it. So instead of 4 bolts holding it on, I had to cut the left mount in half and touched up the cut with some model paint. Three bolts should be plenty as the newer dash is much lighter than the original is. I also started prepping and mounting the fairing bracket. I cut off the original mounts as they definitely will not work with the Gsxr triples. I decided to use the pinch bolts so as to not modify my already powder coated triples. I should have the entire front end finished within a week or two, except for painting the fender and fairing and installing a new front tire. Later, Doug

The Dunlop GT501 are pretty decent. I've heard some good things about the Pirelli Sport Demon's too. There may be others but I haven't had stock tire sizes on mine for over 12 years. Later, Doug

Before swapping to more modern rims, I had a 100/90-19 on the front and a 110/90-18 rear on my '78 Kz1000. You can squeeze a 120/90-18 on the rear if need be. IIRC, a 130 will touch the chain guard and have a dangerous profile. Later, Doug

I finished fitting the early K-series Gsxr fender to the older forks. I had to make a couple brackets for the front as the forks have a single 8mm mounting bolt and the fender has two 6mm mounting bolts. The rear of the fender holes are just about perfect except the fork isn't threaded at the attachment point so I used a couple rivet nuts to fix the problem. I know my brackets are very pretty but they'll be hidden so strength was more important to me than cosmetics. Since I had the front end mostly assembled I zip-tied the complete fairing assembly on to get a feel for the final positioning. I'm only using the handlebars for mock-up so everything is loosely fitted. Next step is figuring out how to mount the fairing bracket on the Gsxr triples. Later, Doug

Thanks! I really appreciate that. I have to see what mounting options I have on the frame if I can get out to the garage tonight. Later, Doug

I did...my machine class just ended. So now I'm back to hand tools. I have a couple ideas floating around in my head though. Later, Doug
