[busaash]

ok so last year feb /march I spotted this on ebay .

GOOD POINTS

good engine , not been apart sill has the chrome s sticker above the generator cover , has dyna coils taylor leads ,pod filters good carbs that are set up ok , stainless exhaust in good condition ,  needs new end can or why . taxed and tested .

 took it for a ride pulls well .

so I bought it , when I collected realised I knew the owner , its been in this configuration for the last 4-5 years .

[busaash]

so changed a few things , bars billet mirrors new hell hoses , gsxr 1000 m/c for better braking . and went out did lots of running round on it .

then re advertised on e bay after 4 months as I had no room in my garage .

lots of watchers no buyer , so parked an other bike at my mates and started to take bits off

[busaash]

started trying to get a standard tank , and had lots of problems most had too much damage or just holes and rust

but realised the headstock was braced or why ........grrrrr

[busaash]

got the tank from member on here , and also another member sold me a petrol tap good to be on here helps so much when trying to source hard to find parts

fitted some ace bars and a big new headlight

[busaash]

contacted sfc to see what seat units he had in his fiberglass world of seats , he sent this for me to use as a mock up

[busaash]

removed the footrest plates and routed out a set of rearsets from a Yamaha yzf 125 as this was a cheap fix

then thought about selling for a £1000 as tax and mot had ran out and still no room in my garage.

[busaash]

so that was December and I was still building my main bike spondon ish (also in project section ) put the k2 gsxr 1000 up for sale on here and word of mouth , no takers on either bike .

febuary started looking for front end parts .

ebay is a good source of parts as I am at my computer a lot In work and on my phone . spotted some supermoto wheels

complete with black rims , discs , and wheel spindles bridgestone battle-ax tyres

 (big thanks to fatblokeonabandit for collecting for me )

 

found a swingarm locally at a breakers with eccentric adjusters and both spindal for £25 bargain and can get the thing braced if I want at a later date to make it look a bit more like a metmachex on the cheap
