Default Justin@Hms / Hybrid Motorsports Project: 2007 Suzuki Gsxr 600

Well buckle your seatbelts or should I say chinstraps Boys & Girls this one will be colossal.

First and foremost I wanna thank my dear friend Hashani for blessing me with the opportunity to get back into the game after about 4 years of not riding or even owning A bike.

For those you who know me, Know motorcycles were my beginning, With the initial influence from my older brother Nick, I have always loved bikes that love took me from tinkering to attending MMI an accredited technical institute specializing in motorcycle technician training, I've done everything from sanctioned ccs racing to street stunt riding.

But even though my Passion for bikes were deep rooted, I felt something was missing and slowly started to drifting into (cager's) Cars.

Which brings be to this point back into bikes which I'm very excited about.

This project is going to just mainly going to be me having fun riding again, But will like to put my fabrication & self taught engineering skills to the test as I will experiment with several states of tune and/or setups , which really have no limitation besides funding, As this is, As everything I/we do are completely out of pocket & out of time (around customers jobs) no big sponsors here.

Ok, Well let's see what happens.

Thanks in advance for your patients.
Regards Justin

The motorcycle as I took delivery of it fresh off the truck from new York, The bike was lowsided and slid head first into a wall, The front wheel, forks, surprisingly the lower triples and a host of other parts were destroyed.





The bike was then transported to its new home @ Hybrid where I began a stripping, cleaning, safety inspection & overall parts assessment.

Well getting some time to get back into the gsxr, got a few updates , tail section fairings, gauge cluster, front fairing and a few minor pieces have been fitted.. turns out the front wheel is out of round but was still temp put in place:

So I now need a front wheel, Right side rearset & exhaust servo before I take my first spin..





Short start-up clip: Nothing Special btw

Well it's been awhile but the project gsxr has really taken shape, It is running and riding good with the exception of a very soft front compression feeling would like to get my sag setup and maybe a revalve, Will have to get in contact with Chad Wolfe as he's the best around in suspension set imo, Added new front wheel, right side rearset, right turn signal, brand new set of (full bore) tires & did a set valve elimination with the #30 ecu pin cut (that was the fi code in the video) currently getting familiar with the bike before any further upgrades. (the bike is now complete minus the front wheel fender)

Some shots in the current stage:
