o i've been keeping people up to date on FZRonline, but haven't posted it up here yet.... so here ya go

I did the yzf swing conversion, and just finished painting the frame/swing, and wheels.

GONNA RUN A 180 TIRE.... hehe, and before you flame, i'm not goin to the track with this...

Going with ALL black and bronze/gold wheels...Mat black frame/swing/exhaust, and gloss black fairings

First couple pics are of when I first got her about 3 months ago...

 

going to look nice and man, that's a lot of work.

 

ya man fo sizzle that paint came out awesome. and shit ya thats alot of work.

 

Nice work! we got one of those, gonna try to clean it up one day haha

 

very nice, keep us updated. maybe I'll be inspired to do something with mine

 

thx fellas, The bike came with a no title frame, i picked up the other frame with a clean FL title from the same guy i got the yzf swing from. LUCKY!

 

cool project man, good luck with it..

 

update!, 5/29/09

Got the swingarm in place, and the tires put on!! I'm so happy with how the wheels and frame/swing look together! We had to shave a little more down on each side, and got a snug fit. The rubber inside the endcaps on the swing HAD to be notched out. No problem. Got the tires on for 32 bucks including tax.

We had to stop cuz i have stuff to do tonight, and we need to scuff and paint the shock with some rattle can. I think i'm gonna stage 1 black the forks also.

old frame, had to use the FZR swing arm tube and bolt

ya, its upsidedown, but its the easiest way to do it lol.....180 tire folks!

 

thats gunna look nice when your done. quick question is their a benifit to useing self etching primer ?

 

honestly, i have no idea man lol. I figure it means, it ETCHES into the metal right?? lol... either way, primer is a must when painting. The guys at the wheel shop were sure it was gonna chip, cuz they thought it was rattle can. Once i told them what i did they were more confident.
