Pics of my project so far..

I've finally got a pic of the zx9r, to show you all where in at. So far i have stripped it bare, then had the frame , swingarm and wheels powdercoated black.. Which came up nice.. I have put all new bearings in it while its apart, and just cleaned and painted various bits.. I have just about all the parts i need except for a headlight,, and maybe the standard headers which hae a bit of a bend in them.. So if anyone has either of these and want to get rid of them give me a holla...

great to see a 9 getting some TLC.

If its a "C" model I have 2 full stock systems if you need some bits. Cant help with the light though.

Kepp up the good work, ya gotta luv tha 9

Nice work so far!
Going from the front guard I assume you are going with blue? Standard plastics?
Need some polishing work done?

Pretty sure its an "e" Phil. C model headers are 2mm smaller diameter and wont fit these.

couldnt tell from the pic, the subframe connection is hard to pick up if its welded or not, other than that they look pretty similar from that angle.

i know the "C" headers wont fit anything else, that why i asked if it was a "C" . Polished bits yum yum

lookin good so far, keep them pics coming

Your right I had to squint too and it's about the only easy identification.
My post did read a little smart arsey - sorry not intended.

Yeah its a c1, the subframe is welded on, the black makes it hard to see i know.. As for polished bits, I dont think so. im not into that, goin more for that black satin look.. Just puttingthe stock blue plastics back on, i like the blue, as its similar to my 06 speed triple. Where abouts are you located phil? i am interested in a stock set of headers.. i have a bolt on can for it, so just some headers.. I might try and straighten these ones this weekend, and i'll let ya know if i need them or not.. i'll add some more pics as i progress...

i'm in sydney, i've got 2 x C1 ehaust systems so i could let one system be split - for a fellow zx9 rider


and yep, the blue ones are faster

Ok cool.. thanks phil.. How much did you want for it?? Have you got a contact number i can get you on??

I lurve the black frame - I'm going to do my tracky with a black frame next time it's apart, and may even do my roadie if it works out well. Lookin' good dude!

Got a great bike there. Looks good with the black frame. Blue is the best colour.
Post some more pics as you go.


Gotta luv the 9.

Got a little more done on the beast. Fitted a LED relay, which worked a treat. Then got all the tail unit set up... Its lookin more like a bike every day... Cant wait to take it for a ride..
