Secret project revealed

[Nor_Cal_Tuna]

this is a huge hint at about half the new huge project. frame is at painter. nay guesses?

oops attachment try again

[murphy]

wow awksome. is it the triple head clamp??

[yenkoz28]

I would guess that will allow us to use inverted forks and radial calipers. So the real question is how much for the new triples?

[killernoodle]

Thats what it looks like. Maybe an all black framed 05 silver?

[FZTurtle]

That is HAWT looking. Good work.

[segue00]

Silver polishing the bike?

[Nor_Cal_Tuna]

ok, so theres been some healthy speculation, but i'll be honest, I wouldn't have painted the frame just to change the forks....

[jat1993]

I like that Renthal streetfighter handlebar. I can't wait to see what you are up too...

[segue00]

Is it done yet?

[jat1993]

Maybe you are painting the frame since you had it all apart to put an R6 fuel injection system on it. ??

OK, I need some more hints.

[segue00]

Keeping the FZ6 handlebar, triple clamps, frame and putting a busa motor in?
It's been almost a month now, you sure are slow!

[Nor_Cal_Tuna]

The r6 fuel injection, with slides, would certainly help issues prevalent with the fz setup.

I would have barely even loosened the tank though, because there are some issues- the r6 fuel injection doesn't really fit well on the fz air box, and the r air box doesn't fit well because the battery rides up front in the fz with the coils! and the r6 tank doesn't fit on the fz frame anyway so rule that out. I still wouldn't have painted the frame on account of that.

but thats an awesome idea!

as for my speed, it is monumentally glacial. It'll be done this weekend, I have the cash hemorrhage on "regret" : ^ /


Actually, thats not true. The prototype, first rebuild is done this weekend. Skaggs worthy. Then, this winter, begins another agonizingly slow build.

So how did it turn out?

[Nor_Cal_Tuna]

It doesn't have a front fender yet, but it's home, and it's tuned on our DJ250i and it's for real- no BS.

enjoy. I can help anyone who wants this as well as manufacture the parts needed for a reasonable cost. The toughest part is, no joke, cutting your engine.

I did this work at Mammoth Motorsports, my roomates shop, in Rohnert Park, California. There is approximately 100 man hours in it, including paint and prep but not including shopping and part fiche phishing.
