Went and picked up that one from gumtree today. It came with a dodgy headlight fairing. It's held on at the top with some wire and at the bottom with a couple of zip ties. There also seems to be some interesting replacement mirrors taped on.

The bloke I brought it from told me that it turns over and that there is spark. There needs to be a bit more investigation as to the overall condition of the engine but I can already see a heap of bit that are in better knick than the one I brought. Now I've got all the side covers, a better rear fairing and the best bit.......a good frame















and this...........









looks a hell of a lot better than this..........

the frame looks a bit better for sure. heres a site4 for those rusty bits- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4yYF8gS ... re=related

Should be all systems go know,plenty of spares just needs some elbow grease and youll end up with a good old classic

Well this will stop you getting skin cancers. U won't be seeing much day light outside the shed.

Yep. Although I am diverging slightly from the original plan. Thinking of doing something a little different.

That really reminds me of my CB500F in the garage... and no, that's not a compliment! hahahaa

Cafe or street fighter?

Patience. I've got to pull part the zx7r and sell off the parts first to help boost the funds for the rebuild.

so what parts can you see fitting the 5fitty?

what about the rearsets?

a frigging big one of these and the 750 may fit!
