So, the mad scientist has begun... I have to thank TST industries for the inspiration of this project with their seriously sick integrated tail light, and also G-craft... because....well...you will see... haha...

here is a early teaser pic... long ways to go and lots of fairing massaging to get the fit and dimensions right but go ahead and drool!

So, quick update. most of the hacking and repositioning of abs is done, now gotta do some custom tank work, some fiberglass, and get a few more parts but she is coming along nicely!

 

[cfaddict]

oops, a pic would be nice huh?

 

[flying dave]

Now that is going to be cool!

Getting closer...gotta finish the little bit of bodywork, tank and seat, mount up the tail light and a few other little finishing touches and then its time for the paint booth!

OMG. Awesome.

That looks awesome. Where'd you get the fairings? Is that one of the kits for the grom?

 

[MindThreat]

That looks insane. I'm assuming you're keeping it white...

actually I used real panigale fairings (aftermarket) and cut them down and resized them to fit and have been bonding them and fiber-glassing on the back side for strength.


and for the other question...its probably gonna get some paint and stickers.... and a few more tidbits for closer authenticity lol I just want to be able to have my little work ride back together again now though!

 

[cfaddict]

starting to come together!

 

[cfaddict]

So close to finished! Did a quick plasti-dip paint job just to get an idea of color....The tank is just rough fiberglass so I need to do some finishing work to that, and I need to finish making my seat...
I had it out for a shakedown run today and rode it to work... I miss riding this little guy! Not sure if I want to drop the $2500 or not for the single sided swing arm, $460 for an ohlins shock, and $500 for the werks exhaust....so much money, and I would still need to do brakes, tires, and front
springs. yeesh.
