Water pump fitted
Fits as if its meant to live there
doesnt really need one but i shall make some sort of bracket for it, the blanking plug for the stock pump didnt work so back to the drawing board for that one. Finished the electrics off today too so might a chance to fire her up and listen to these
Well happy with the condition of the pipework, cans will clean up and look ok swapped over to hide the damage. Im still amazed at how light these puppies are.

Looking good mate, really very impressed, going to look great when it's done :D
Just so you know, the pipework weighs just 1.6kg, not too sure about the cans though, but with carbon and Ti end caps, it won't be a huge amount

You won´t regret...
I am not very good at telling the difference after parts are changed, but with the CBR600RR front end, I could definitely tell. When compressed under braking , it feels like they still can absorb bumps vs standard forks stiff feeling.
If you need any help about fitting, just pm or mail.

how much research have you done tony on fitting the front end, is it a bolt in jobbie of custom everything to get it to fit .

The one im looking at is coming off a RVF so all the donkey work has been done, four fingers has been kind enough to send me a lot of details refering to the conversion so when ive digested it all i'll post it up but all in all its a pretty easy conversion. Theres an issue with disks if you keep the rvf front wheel tho, not 100% sure on the details but from what i gather you need one off discs made, the one im looking at comes with disks to suit, PFM's
