Nice work!
I think she needs to be Green, being the ELR. Just makes her more recognizable.

in the mean time im going to work on fabbing the aircraft filler cap onto my spare tank.
then paint it green and im considering either buying
the 83 grafix for it of making them from Kevlar sheeting
haven't made up my mind yet.
same with the upside down forks big job and i do wanna ride it everyday to work.
but for for the time and effort she didn't come out to bad.
plus i had a lot of help from my daughter
and my buddy at arc welding here on the island.

Be sure to get your assitant/test pilot some riding gear and a helmet.
She looks like she plans to ride it just as she is, bare-footed and all! :ohmy: :laugh:

Tell me is that fork a brace or a cut down guard support, the ones we get here are gererally more bulky looking.
I will send a pic of the ones that were once available here.

Kano, love your bug eyed weapon, looking at it I am sorely tempted to forget the upper fairing I've just finished painting for the green meanie , bloody awesome !!!!!and go for the same look.

thx bro front end came off a 86 gpz1000
and that was the brace that came with it
i had to open up the wholes
to make it work.
havnt thought about a mudguard as it kinda works as is.
i may stay with the streetfighter look or i have a
elr style fairing that was made for twin headlights
havnt decided it put it on yet i may do just to retain
original look but i need to fab a frame out of round bar first.
im going to my buddy's later to pick up my tank he has finishes welding in the billet aircraft filler cap to a spare gpz1100b1 tank i had see how that looks this afternoon kinda excited about that.
