Ideal fuelling set up for road going RVF.

Yep

As for forks, trumpet 675 forks go in and can still retain the honda wheel and discs. That gives you upto date tech forks, radial brakes and the option to fit the R spec kit

you mean like these?

you got the cash and the inclination - get on it mate - let us know how you got on, as it has been a while since we had someone go mad on the bikes..

I can afford to gradually spend on it and get it on the road again

By this I mean sporadically, I've been between jobs for most of the year and things haven't been favourable for most of my 5 year ownership of this bike..
It''s not been ridden since September 2009 when it's Reg/Rec, killswitch, and battery went. Shortly after my first track-day at Anglesey

Bike needs a rear tyre, radiator painting (a cheap ebay jobby for the moment that is replacing my previous badly leaking unit), R6 reg/rec mounted (to the proper mounts which I'm going to replace with longer studs as I had one of the mounting holes extended to fit). Kill-switch wired in, new battery, new manifold and hopefully exhaust system installed, jetted to suit, fluids all round, the little *U-Joint at the bottom of the rear brake plunger to fit to my rearsets, the *Gear change arm to match my standard linkage and a few bits of the carbs to tank fuel line assembly.
After this I'm just going to leave it for a while as it's already at a good standard after all the time and money I invested into it back in 2009 at college. It is however tatty, so I'd like to get a painted GRP or Silhouette fairing kit for it sometime soon, keep the engine clean an all.
Save for that the shock will be the next priority, but I've still got all the work I did previously to report on before I get a project thread under way, so don't expect anything too soon

*If anyone has these bits going spare then I'll pay well for them, as a European stockist wants €37 for the Gear change arm alone.

gsxr genny - that is a good idea on these bikes..

Oh yes? Do tell me more.

I bought this bike as a kid, and as a stupid kid, inspired by a tarted CBR400 project on BCF I caught the bug and soon managed to rack up a £10k list for the RVF, including pointless things like a blueprinted engine with all custom internals and big bore (think GForce).
My expectations and aspirations for this bike, Elisha as I call her have calmed down a bit but I'm still looking at upwards of 3k before I'll be happy, she's a definite keeper.. I've tried to let her go before, even when desperate for the cash and I just couldn't do it.

Seeing suggestions like the above, just after I decided I could settle with axial calipers from a Ducati or something..
Well now I suppose my budget's just going to have to creep back up

the little *U-Joint at the bottom of the rear brake plunger to fit to my rearsets

It's called a clevis, clevis joint, clevis pin, something with clevis in... Actually, they aren't too expensive new, which is surprising!

Gearchange arm. Do you mean the bit that bolts to the gearbox shaft, the link between it and the pedal, or the pedal?

[Mac_Kaliba]

Ah I mean the bit that bolts to the gearbox shaft
