Default My F2 project.

I've been slowly working on this bike for over a year.
Here's where I'm at so far.

F4i Swingarm, wheel, suspension,
600RR tail, seat, cowl
GSXR 1000 front end.
All wires run inside frame


I hope to have it complete by early next year.

Currently I'm searching for a lower clamp, since the one I have is tweaked.


When I first got the bike.
New tail mounted.



swingarm and bars done



new front end

I figured it'd take you about 1/10th of a second to sniff out this thread...

A little bit of both. I like building frankenbikes.



Bob, I have both F2 rims with rotors, forks, triples, calipers, brake lines, etc...

Pm me with an offer, they are white. They look like they're in good shape. The bike sat for years, it's got only 8000 miles on it.

The frame/swingarm are going to be satin black, not sure about the wheels and the tank/tail/fender.

On one side I'd like something very mute that will blend in, since I'm going to get into trouble with that bike.

On the other side, I'd like to do a wild bright paint job to stand out.

The bike will not have any gauges, just a neutral/oil light.

I wouldn't put any lights on it. Fuck it. And I'd paint everything black. Flat black. Fuck it.
