The
first 7/11
The
original 7/11 was built by Bradley O' Connor and was featured in
Performance Bikes Magazine Sept. '92. He put a GSX1100F engine in
a GSX-R750 chassis to create a bike that gave him the same surge
of adrenaline as he got from riding a Kawasaki ZZR-1100 without
spending a lot of money.
Although built from standard parts and any further tuning it was
measured to outperform the ZZR on every aspect. His bike became
a inspiration to many and nowadays there must be hundreds of 7/11's
on the streets.
Bradley
later added nitrous and put the engine in a Harris Magnum 4 frame.
The
combination of the monster torque of a GSX-R1100 and the light weight
and short(er) wheelbase of a 750 chassis results in a bike which
;
"Has enough torque to pull a Brontosaurus out of quicksand"
and
"Leaps out of your hands coming out of corners without even being
asked"
And
that is exactly what we 7/11 owners want, a affordable bike witch
will give you that same feeling of sheer power that you got when
you got on a 1100 for the first time, even when you own it for years
now, something you just won't get used to.
