Yeah, that looks soo sick! I want to do that front end swap. I just don't get how he got it all to look so nice like it was stock. I know its a rf900 front end, but did he just take the top of both left and right side pieces on the katana, and then just patch the rf900 in with bondo or something?

Bondo is not flexible btw, and will chip/flake if used on ABS many times.

so how about it wal? any updates? I've got a 89 parts bike I'm thinking about using to fit some custom parts. Used to do fiberglass work a few years ago and seriously considering making some custom fairings for my 91. Just tired of the old look. It really needs a modern rocket ship look!But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. Mat 10:33

I didnt go anywhere, I'm still here. The poor bike project is going sloooooowwww. I seem to have this problem of having too many projects at once. So, I work hard on them all collectively, and that makes progress on one project slow sometimes.92 Kat 600
