Thank you it's a good price! Well being sick this past few days I believe I've broke more that what I could do good. Melting the tail and braking the tail light too. lol I'm grounding myself from doing anything so. As far as that goes, it will be a while until I can do anything with the bike.

I do like the set-up of the older late 80s mid 90s Ninja and that's what I was some what look to go toward only naked. so I found a 1988 zx6r for parts bike although I did marry it and can't bare to part it out (clean title)!
No matter what I am going to try to see what it will look like with the swap with the rear. and try to restore the other.

I bought another zx600c so I am continuing the rear swap. my one concern is that I am droping wheel size from 18inch w/42t to a 16inch w/39t. With this concern is how much gear ratio has changed or did it at all?

I'm not sure how or what.... but it does say that the gearing will be better and faster speeds.

I had to stop on the project due to a title discrepancy 5 of the last digits to the vin is all wrong. I'm heading to Highway state patrol inspection on the 14th.

The rectifier converts alternating current from the alternator into direct current used by the bike's electrical system.

that's good reference. What the main issue is that the bike's title was switched or entered wrong when being transferred from jersey. I'll have to pray when they run the vin that neither is stolen. I'll be striping the engine and wiring before inspection. So at the worst comes to worse I'll have a good running engine for sale or the base to a shifter cart even, put it into the ninja.
