Hey is that your Van in the earlier pic? Are you in Av? I may have followed you a few times on my way to work

in fact I was contemplating ringing you for my girlfriends car a couple of weeks ago but ran out of time (it was a present)

You could always do what I did and find a spare pillion seat to glass over and make into a single seat cowl. Paint it green and put a little pad in the front of it and it'll look much more race.

I work for the same company as the guy at Whale beach- you probably saw him at AV on his way home.
Pm me if you need something done and i'll look after you price wise.
Cheers damo

So the story contiues..................................... A real good mate of mine lent me a zx7 race tail off his race bike for a moc up for the zxr.
This is a mod that not sure if its been done before- but this is what ive come up with using the standard zxr sub frame and a zx7 tail.

Needs some "Moving" stickers and it would look much more like a real replica.
Looks really good, but could look really great

. I'm sure Robracer would be able to make something for you

Gosling: Yeah mate i tend to agree the angle suits it now ive stared at it for what seems hrs.
Phil: Id love to go the whole hog on it but was gonna put my own business on it in the same looking writing and colors.
Max: Wondered how long it would be until you chimed in

cheers again for the tail mate.
The tail is a massive amount of work now that ive gotten right into it.
Had to cut and lower the the front where the seat hits it about 30 mill then lengthen the sides under the seat to take away the gap from the different seat shapes.
If i wasnt such a tight arse and had better things to do i would just go and buy the right one

But that would be to easy i recon.

That looks much better than the original seat unit - well worth the toil I'd say.
