i always try to get something a bit more from my builds , and this always tends to bite me in the ass , bought some aprilia rsv mille radial forks and a pair of brembo calipers from a ducati evo , then found a bottom yoke from a k8 gsxr 750 , 56mm fork leg size all from auction site

i had sold the bandit 1200 to make room in my small garage, and to allow me to buy the parts before i started the build as in the past i have just started building and stalled . i had thes made by my good mate ooop north all machined here in yorkshire from solid billet (no chinese items here ) bought a brembo rear m/c too

i really wanted a proper exhaust and i managed through oss to find this stainless item 4-2-1 of an unknown make but believe it to be a micron possibly , its from a gsxr 1100 it was wrapped up in a loft for a few years think it will polish up a treat

the friend who made my rearsets also made me this one off top yoke , i have added the renthal fat bar risers a really well made item from a crappy drawing on a bit of card he d man also swapped frames as this one had all the engine mounts and adjusters for swing arm and a subframe for a r6 already done , this will need modding but ever closer to a start .
