Here we go some pics of the bike back together and re sprayed, and in my honest opinion i think it looks preety dam good. And best of all it only cost £13.46 in total!!!

Sadly though ive been offered an R1 at a price i cant refuse, so already its time to say goodbye to the little beast :cry:

Ill be sad to see it go but ive always wanted an 04 r1 and now ive the chance to get it :D

so heres some pics and should anyone fancy giving me £2000 for it then your more than welcome

If it really is a HRC cdi that is worth a quarter of the total asking price of the bike, open the box!!!! £10 says it's HRC delimiter....

give your self a tenner mate, its a delimiter lol well i got proper lied ot there dint a ??
never mind im gonna keep the thing now anyway. Im not gonna sell the thing for next to nowt when its worth more than that to me and its still a proper weapon.

So i went on an ebay buy-a-thon today and came away with a hrc brake res and a cbr600rr tail unit lol not alot but the bike doesnt need much to be honest and anything i do now will just be improving on the decent kit ive already got.

Anybody got any ideas on what i should do next?
Im gonna re route the rear brake hose next week (id do it now but im snowed it because of my toss rear wheel drive car :x )

Also while at the mcn bike show this weekend i spoke to padgetts honda and they reckon they might have a few ideas, so off to batley when i get the chance for some TT inspired modifications :D

cheers for reading
Damien

Yeah everyone wants something for nowt including me. What about your fees for ebay? Listing fee will have been £9 and then final value fees of 1%(?) might be £17.
Don't suppose your mate is interested in my ZX6 is he?

yeah lol nearly 17 quid to list....robbers. Ill ask him mate tbh i forgot all about it. as for fitting that seat unit lol that bloody subframe wouldnt fit for the life of trying :twisted: i think it must have twisted in storage or something because i couldnt get it to line up lol. The seat looks decent though after taking the dremel to it and that fuel filler looks proper GP :D

Yeah I'd be grateful. Sorry about the seat unit, I had it on a bike of mine at some point, but filler does look nice and flash. Isn't it about time yougot a proper job? ;)
