New bike, new mods

Incase your wondering why the picture is wierd on the pipe side. I just had an elbow surgury and can't move the bike. Best i could do. But I used Billet mothers and have it looking like a mirror. Its a Smeg, but I'm sure you guys new that.

Not making any sense. I did it just like the instructions stated and get this. I realize it needs the [img] on the back but when i tried that, still nothing.

Works for me.

You have to use [ img ] at the beginning
and [ / img ] at the end. Without the spaces of course.

It looks like there's a space in your [ / img ]
Souldn't be any. Run it all together.

Type [ img ] without spaces then your image location and then [ / img ] again without spaces.

I thought maybe there was no backseat. I didn't know the bottle would fit under there.

Awesome bike Pat. By the way, I used to see pictures of your Busa on Motorhead's site. You did a great job with that bike. Best looking Busa I've ever seen.

I gather that the gear shifter is operated by compressed air from the storage bottle via the switch on the instrument panel. You mentioned that you had just undergone elbow surgery, what is the connection between the two? You will have to pardon my ignorance, I am having problems understanding the entire post, could someone explain please.

Tiger undertail and some rearranging. Fit with no problem whatsoever. Its a 16 ounce CO2 bottle. No mods to the bottom of the seat at all. Matter of fact, Kaw knew I was going to do this and if you look at the bottom of your seat you'll see it's designed for a 1pound nitrous or co2 bottle.lol Just need a Tiger undertail and your home free. Also gives more room to help from bottming out.

It from Tobin.

Going to get a little more work done to get it to my liking. Kind of a trial and error thing. Going to get it lower in the butt area so i really fit snug in there when I race it. Much like Brent Davis seat. He did a real good job with his.

I have a buffer/ grinder and you'ld be surprized how quick you can polish something using it. I might have 10 mins in the airshifter ram. Thanks for the compliment.

Thank-you Mokaw. It was hard watching it leave with someone else. Had a lot of time in that one. But when the offer is big enough ...........

I took a picture of the pipe from behind the bike because the bike is sitting against the wall. My elbow keeps me from taking it off the stand to get it away from the wall so I could get a good side shot with the pipe because I just had an operation this last thursday. Thats why the only shot of the pipe is from behind the bike. A breif understanding of the entire post would be simply, I got a new bike, I put new parts on it, and I wanted to share with those that would understand and might want to see my project in progress.


Here's my last project



BEFORE






AFTER



Any questions?? LOL
