Love the colors, I'm considering doing my resto in the blue even though we didn't get that color here.

Trubrit:

Welcome to the forum!
Wow, i see so many things changed on the white bike!
Which front calipers and master cylinder are you using?
Are the caliper brackets from NK Racing?
Looks like you made the taillight flush. Is that done easily with a 90 degree angle bracket?
Custom swingarm, custom rad, headlight brackets
Billet engine covers, fancy kicker.
What model are the front brake disks off?
Do you have any more pictures?

Those caliper brackets look like the one's NK did for me to fit gold spot R1 calipers. anxious to try them on the LC with RZ forks.

Trubrit:

Did you make that tail bracket yourself? It looks like a top notch job!
Those guages are pretty cool too.
No corner of the bike is left untouched.
I guess the brake rotors are stock but you had grooves machined in.
The Tie bar for the rear wheel hub looks much better and lighter.

Was the ultra water pump kit easy to fit to the LC side cover and oil pump cover

or does the RZ case bolt right up....


I have a spare RZ clutch case

The oil pump cover is nice


Also was the alum intake conversion hard to fit with the LC jugs

thanks

Awesome work Mate, the bike looks fantastic.

Such as shame all these cool bikes don't come with video's of them during performance tests, although I probably spend enough time roaming around these forums as it is.
