fazer1sniper Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 (edited) After the Nighthawk is done and gone I got a chance today to dive into a more technical mod for my wife's 92 Gen 3 Interceptor.A 2000 Suzuki TL1000R front end. As an added suprise, my 18 year old daughter bought an 86 Yamaha Radian with 4100 miles for $500 of her graduation money. Been dropped plenty and is prety ratted out. We picked it up this afternoon. She ships out to MEPS Sunday and enter active duty Army Monday. She told me to "have fun with it & remember I like Cafe Racers." I want to do something with the Yamaha before she gets out of Basic. May be alot of work but I'm thinking they both may turn out pretty cool. Edited June 26, 2010 by fazer1sniper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonzie Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 (edited) I actually think that Radian looks pretty damn sharp as is.... Just swap out for a circular headlight & it'd look even better. I like the seat, gauge cluster, & front fender on it. Color is cool too. It's kinda got that muscle bike look to it.... Like a vMax. Dual discs on an '86??Does it run good?

fazer1sniper Posted June 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 I THINK its an 86. Too darn tired to go look now. I know I will swap the head lamp. I have an 8" and 7" over on the shelf. The youngster will give me her opinion on what what to go with it. "Lil thing does run pretty darn stong, I will give it that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSVDon Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 I'll bet that TL front end is a million times better than the stocker. Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
