What I started with
The factory paint looks really good for some reason in this pic....it wasn't. Tank was faded almost pink in spots. Note old dual exhaust. This is as purchased - note broken windscreen and broken clutch lever.
This is stripped down right before I removed the original 600 engine and swapped in the 01 750 4K mile motor from the Kat I bought and parted / stripped down.
White Gauge faces swapped in and painted needles
As it looks today with my Tailbag and bigger tank bag.
Let me see if I can remember all the stuff done between now and then
- Removed / cleaned / maintenanced / painted swingarm
- Rear fender chop and homemade tag bracket and mini turn signals
- New clutch lever
- New clutch cable
- New throttle and choke cable
- Valve adjustment
- Fumoto valve
- 98+ header and Scorpion exhaust installed
- Bandit 1200 shock swap
- Rear suspension all new bolts and detailed
- Grip puppies
- White face gauges
- New rear Z6
- 98+ rider pegs swapped onto pre 98 mounts
- 98+ shifter and rear brake lever
- Rebuilt calipers front and rear
- HEL brakes lines up front
- 01 Kat 750 engine swap
- Factory Pro shift detent spring
- Factory Pro 5 degree advancer
- Fork Spacers and fluid change
- Repacked bearings all around
- New fairing hardware
- Replaced damaged fairing
- Black and Silver paint job
- Black seat
- Smoke windscreen
- 750 CDI
- 750 Oil cooler
Left to do
- New front master cylinder (part on hand)
- Black painted windscreen (part on hand)
- Aftermarket front turn signals (haven't decided which yet)
- Z6 in front
- Wiring up 98+ replacement switch gear to plug into harness
- Ivan's Jet kit
- New OEM air filter
Stickers? Stripes?
And keep piling miles up.
