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.
Cheers Smev

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?

Not really my taste but looks good, hope the mrs apprciates the work you put into it.

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
