My 1100M Cafe Racer under construction

Hi Jinxy, the down pipes are from a micron race system, the end cans were generic ones i got from HUC who built the frame, Graham there also made up the link pipes and made it all fit as he was doing some other work on the frame for me. I can try and find out where the end cans came from, i used to have companies name but can't remember it now, but could find out if you want it?

Yeah very similar looking... i would have used the Dan Moto ones if i'd got the original down pipes but my donor bike came with a full Micron on and i thought the down pipes would be worth retaining and getting the rest custom made. My end cans were from an UK company that Supplies the bike trade, cos Graham at HUC gave me the website address so i could chose some cans that he then ordered. Not sure if they only did,  trade and buggered now if i can remember the name of the company.

I bought a set of the Dan Moto adjustable clip ons got got really frustrated trying to set them up so got a set of Harris ones for about £25! Will probably have another go at fitting them at some point though, once i am finally happy with where everything else is going...

Here's some footage after i got the bike back from having the motor set up on a dyno a few weeks ago... https://video-cdg2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hvideo-xta1/v/t42.1790-2/11287069_371384669718810_1301681226_n.mp4?efg=eyJybHIiOjk4OCwicmxhIjo1OTl9&rl=988&vabr=549&oh=126625fe26978074ca8fd1ef5bccb746&oe=55A69442

Bike is not cosmetically finished by a long shot...frame /bodywork needs painting etc and various other bits need anodising or polishing, so please don't judge it on how it looks currently...

Thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated.....and tbh RojoMojo I don't think you'll find too many people judging an unfinished project on it's cosmetic appearance, certainly not me.

What's the tank?

This is a 5yo thread, the topic starter has not been on here since august 2017.

 

I would not expect an answer from him.

 

Other might chime in ;)

1986 GSXR 750 lowered with damper spacers frorks

1988 GSXR 750 modified swing arm
