Finished for a while.

Post by heinb »

Hi Guys.
It has been a while since my last post on here, but I managed to get the mrs bike ready to go for what I hope will be a better summer than last. A lot of you folks know the bike, but the wife decided to go with something different. It is most probably not to everyones taste, but shes happy and I got my weekends free to ride. :mrgreen: I am just waiting for engine armor to arive then I'm finished with this one. Hope to see a lot of 400 peeps on the roads this summer.

Hi there Hein,
Wow, that bike looks great - very different and very eye catching.
I like the Huge Honda wing outline.
It lokks a load better than when i saw it last time ;)
I've made that old fairing into a Hanspree Rep - have a look in the Gallery section.

its def looking well.

not very many bikes could pull that colour off, but your aftermarket fairings have done a good job.

is that radial brakes you have on the front by any chance?

Hi Smev
Thanks, I can't believe it is the same tatty gold fairing that you took of me. I was very close to taking it to the dumps. Great effort and it looks ace..

The tail unit is not the same as a tyga rear, so I don't know where to move the fuel switch. The choke has moved a bit more to the rear of the bike. Simple bracket that gets bolted to the frame. The only problem I have is to get to the radiator cap. Very tricky to top up. I don't know what fastners came with, but I got my bolts from probolt. I needed 2 packets for this one though.

The underseat exhaust looks fantastic!!! What is it, how much was it? Was it much hassle to get on under the tail unit? I have been thinking about getting an underseat exhaust for a while!!! I think that moving the exhaust will really enhance the lines of the swing arm!!

Thanks

:D
