New project.1428 turbo or supercharged, Who knows?

Looks good, What style subframe are you going to run, or are you going to make it?

Subframe is going to be alloy. Have got some 25mm bar and a fireblade subframe so could be either or combination of both.
There won't be much of it, Just enough to hold a seat and battery.
Fuel tank and seat will also be aluminium which i will also make.
Have some 3.5mm alloy road signs for this.
Never done this before so it will either be a success or will end up with piles of molten alloy on the floor and something that resembles a can that's been kicked up and down the street ? :laugh: .

Cool. i cant wait to see this.

Here's the sort of look i'm going for.

Ive seen that 1. it looks kind of light and airy compaired to stock.

Yes i think the drawing's a bit out of proportion, shorter and taller than the real thing ,More of a caricature but if i can get something close i'll be very happy.

I'd say that u are on track. your frame shape is similar allready ( pulled up a little at the front). i like the shape so far.
i'd say the tricky part will be making the tank flow with this shape.
u seem to have great forsite. Keep up the good work.

Been a while since i posted (Life and things getting in the way)so time for a quick update.

Here's some pics of progress so far.

Alloy subframe made from bits of honda fireblade



Alloy (roadsign) bodywork still a work in progress but coming along nicely.







Also got the zx10r footcontrols fitted but still lots to do.



Bodywork still needs work but getting the look i think ?
Front mudguard is next on the list but i think it's going to be the hardest bit.

I think I'm starting to like it!

other than for easy motor removal why would you cut off the bottom of the frame? wouldnt that make it a lot less stable. or is there a bolt on sub frame just not shown yet?
