That has got to be one of the most original looking pregens I have ever seen. How did your track day go? How does the bike run/feel?

track coming up this sat at Streets of Willow Springs.
just about have everything ready now. Finished painting everything, and just bought a ton of seat/tank foam from HTmoto. there minor things i need to add later. I will post a vid of the track day/ more photos in better lighting and details after track. this time: blue loctited a few more bolts down. traced and cut the foam to the right sizes, peeled off the backing and stuck em on. for the seat i had to do the same but drill holes to zip tie it down and keep it in place. sorry for lack of progression pics, but i really needed this to be done before friday, which is when im taking off for track. heres what it looks like as of right now |

after riding this at streets of willow, i have made the decision to swap the front end from r6 to inverted gsxr forks. this means 2 calipers and rotors to my current 1 and also more tuning options for suspension.
already got the complete gsxr front. will be updating soon |

Seriously you are great. I have a naked two thousand two crash victim that has three thousand five hundred miles and love the idea of a bigger front end.
I cant wait to hear about how it rides or even see video. Thank you for the thread! |

my pleasure. so far there are minor tank clearance issues and the rake angle may or may not be off. i cant lower the front anymore otherwise the triple wont hold the forks in place. ill see if my friends have footage up of me (with teh r6 front)

Yeah I just meant you had the R6 unit and now the GSXR unit and was curious if one required alot more work than the other

You will need to buy tapered bearings, remove the old race, drive in the new bearing. The just elevate the front end of the 250, slide out old front, slide in new front. adjust as desired. Its pretty straightforward/ not too difficult as long as you have the space. Having the right tools (especially the bearing driver) will make this a 30 min - 1hour job vs a few days |

I didn't think I would get to see a crash too. Looks like a lot of fun on the track. I will think about changing my seat. I don't plan on touring on this bike.

i almost ate it in the skidpad when i was leaning off the bike. back end slid out because of a bump, but luckily the bike was light enough that my knee draggin a few inches sideways (unintentional -.-) allowed the rear to regain traction |

Yup - you caught me. Hit quote on your post and you'll see how I did it; you just need to put the video ID within the youtube tags and it will work fine; you can't put the whole URL in there.
