Sharky's 'fighter

Post by Sharky »

This was how I first got the project...I already owned an FJ1100 so that donated the motor...

This was the first rebuild...fairly restrained as it had to pass VIV inspection (repairable write off inspection)
Image
It then became this....

Once in Brissy I got playful...

Why did you go back to the airbox?
I was trying to get it running right....turned out it was the stubby exhausts killing the engine...gone back to the filters, a FactoryPro jet kit and modified the exhaust into a 4-2-1 using stock headers and a few mandrel bends.
It should be done after xmas...whilst I'm in the UK the tanks are being fitted..then its just paint.
Oh and Yes....

ITS A YAMAHA ...but it has been called a Kwak on many occasions.....The kwak key fob helps when 'carpark experts' are around.... :twisted:
