all graphics will be black, unless the sponsors logo is colour'd.

you just wait till its all done, you wont be able to contain yourself :P


the pics of the blue & white fairing make the fairing look alot cleaner than it actually was. and there was some crash damage on the left hand side.

got my rvf400 calipers today, i test fitted them today, using the gsxr750 rear disc bolts, and they seem to work fine.

but i have got someone to make me some proper spacers to fit the m8 rvf caliper bolts to make them 10mm for the fork leg.

Image


so i shall be using these instead when they get fitted properly.

looking good man :geek:

Those calipers are not RVF400 ones btw - they are CBR600FX calipers - same as the blade, SP1 etc calipers but with a black casting instead of gold or silver :ugeek:

Sorted


It is "too orangey for crows" as a former 400gb member used to have as her sig...when she got an orange ZXR to race on..lol

Hi Simmo,

Looking good my mate. If I'd realised that they were the later type calipers I'd have fitted them to my RVF - DOH!!

Anyway, Freddy certainly nows how to spray a set of fairings after all he's never let us down.

Cheers Mike @ BMC Racing 01948 667976.

those brake are shit hot! i have them on my nc30 and coupled with braided lines and an uprated master cylinder will stop the bike on its nose with no effort what so ever

what ,aster cylinder are you running? you may need new lines too as the banjo is a different angle to the rvf ones i think
