Streetfighter V3.0

Recap of my previous projects:

- FZ6 v1.0:

v1.0.jpg

I just did not like the Acerbis headlight, so I went with:



- FZ6 v1.1:

v1.1.jpg


That one unfortunately ended up here:

It was totalled, so I decided to use the insurance money to get a used '06 and make it this:

- FZ6 v2.0



That one took a beating last weekend
and I lost the headlight + seat cowl + bellypan. Fortunately, everything else is intact, so I am starting the new V3.0 (should actually be v2.1 but since it was a miracle that my bike made it out almost intact, I call it v3.0):

- FZ6 v3.0 This is how the bike looks like today:

Re: Streetfighter V3.0

Now this project will be fairly straight forward:

- Phantom 4 headlight coming from Germany
phantom4.jpg cbr1000_2.jpg


- Black powder coated top triple (part on its way from Hellgate!!! thanks again man!!!)


- Ordered the LSL Streetbars, black aluminum with black bar ends from here: LSL Handle Bars


- Ordered new front sprocket 15t (stock is 16t) from the same website above.


- will probably cut the rear passenger peg brackets (coming off the subframe).


- find a way to mount Oso's setback plates for the rearsets

Re: Streetfighter V3.0

You can get aluminium belly pans.

Re: Streetfighter V3.0

Looking forward to seeing the new light on there.

The seat cowel is ruined? I'd take it off your hands if it's fixable at all (track use).

Seat cowl is scratched on top (not bad), and has one tab broken off (used to lock it against the passenger grab rail). It's definitely fixable, but I want to see if I can do something with it before I part with it. If not, it`ll be yours.

I will also salvage the headlight mini fairing... I looked at it in details and it`s structurally intact. A good wet sand and some carbon fiber to rebuild a couple of mounts (in the back) and it`ll look brand new. I am looking around ebay for a gixxer headlight (K5), so far I only found some for around $200, but if I find a good deal I`ll get it and have 2 headlights Either I`ll keep both and swap them depending on my mood, or I`ll just sell the K5.
