Mods .... anyone else doin any to their bikes at the mo ? I got plenty on to keep me busy :D

Me R1 is complete, mind you is a bike ever truly complete ?? am thinkin velocity stacks next, I just need to make sure this second battery on the R1 lasts then that bike is sorted for now, anything that could be replaced over the past 2 years has been, rides like new if not better :D

Me 400RR though is another story, gonna need a lot of tlc if am gonna bring it up to R1 standards, this is me spec so far for the 400RR :



• MAKE & MODEL: Suzuki GSX-R 400RR SP-2, 1990 GK73A, Black.
• WHEELS: Standard Wheels, Black Anti-Theft Valve Caps.
• TYRES: Pirelli Dragon SuperCorsa Pro, Front - 120/60 ZR17 @ 32psi, Rear - 150/60ZR17 @ 32psi, White Tyre Paint
• FINAL DRIVE: 14-Tooth Front Sprocket, 45-Tooth Rear Sprocket, Motrax Mechanical MPH Converter
• BRAKES: Goodridge Race Set-Up Stainless Steel Brake Lines, Renthal Medium Grips.
• BODYWORK: Black Race Screen, Custom Race Decals, Bright White Angel Eye Conversion, Ring Xenon Sportzblue HID Bulb Headlight Upgrade H4 80/100w, Superlux Super Bright 180 Degree LED Bulb Sidelight Upgrade T4W, T5 286 Bright White Instrument Panel Bulb Upgrade, Silver Evotech Paddock Stand Bobbins, Renthal Medium Grips, Hard-Wired Oxford Maximiser 360T Charger.

Thats just the mods added, not to mention new clutch cable, throttle cable etc etc etc ... but I won't stop with the 400RR until its had the R1 treatment and reaches that level of standards.

Heres a pic of what mods are due to go on, we have as follows :



• Power Boost - Engine De-coker, proven to add bhp and let engine run better
• Carb Cleaner - Gonna need this after I been squirting 600ml of Power Boost through the carbs
• ITG Megaflow Sock Filters - Release the power, next to come will be stage 3 jet kit
• ITG Sock Oil - Gotta oil those socks like you would any aftermarket filter, K&N etc
• HRC Race Brake Reservior - Gonna tidy the rear end of my bike up no end when I junk the original res in place for this, plus will look trick as hell

This is what the HRC res looks like on a 10R :



You can also see in the pic me waterproof folder with driving licence, aa card, phone, mini torch etc etc, I'll build this until am happy with it.

Phew ...

So come on what you guys up to tinkering away in the garage night after night ?

Might want to try to replace the bronze bushing in the stock forks they are what take up the forks bend when braking if they are bad seals wear out all the time

Cool cheers racer,
Haven't taken forks apart before, so shall learn on my half buggered ones Lol.
Anyone wanna buy a fully buggered set of forks!!!
