How is your streetfighter coming along Jim? Any pics?

Nothing yet; need to get the spare bike running first then be looking at starting it after that!

Well; finally got myself in gear and have bought an MX bar and some risers to start mocking up my ZXR streetfighter!
Plan is for a 900 motor, modern suspension and swingarm or maybe a single sider, black powder frame, ZX6R single seat tail unit and a paint job using the standard colours!

What bars & risers did you go with & wheres all the pics?

Just bought a cheap set of scrap bandit risers and a steel bar as I don't want to scratch up the good ones before its finished!
Will be going with a Renthal MX bar but not sure about the risers; any advice?

I went with RHK risers mostly because they are about $40 at any motorbike shop

Got the brake upgrade done; just waiting on pads and considering new discs!

Picked up a Nissin 19mm Radial MC off a member today so hope to get that fitted this week but may need new braided lines!

Finally got my ZX7 fork conversion done so the calipers are basically the same as yours now>

Looks the part mate and from the few dabs I've managed to give the brakes they feel pretty strong!
Looking at painting the bike before I do my next track day!

What colour is it going to be?

I have just got a fresh coat of black on the tank & single seat tail I got, The front guard was already black when I bought it & being black it matches pretty good, I need to get a new set of brake hoses & the front end will be sorted
The front calipers came with a fairly fresh set of EBC FA188HH brake pads so that was a bonus considering I got the calipers for $50US, The pads alone are worth more

Going to try and use the standard colours as I don't want to paint the tank as its still got the original "Kawasaki World Champions" sticker on it!
Also since the wheels are green there's few colours I can use to match!

Yeah I am the same although I have gone for black I would not go for yellow, red or orange etc or any metallics & graphics etc, Keeping it fairly Kawasaki with some green on mine too

I would go a green tail to match the lower tank & green on the lower front fairing & guard, Then white on the upper front fairing to match up with the white/green line on the tank, Looks like the green would finish about half way through your headlights horizontally if you run a line from the green on the lower part of the tank?

Would be a good way to match it up with the tank anyway?

Jim,
Sorry to but in, I have been admiring the pictures & like the new fairings & single seat & wondering where you got them from ?
I've started sanding back the 3 colours on mine because the last coat was in enamel & I'm sick of it already especially knowing it won't end up like new.
I'd love to start with new stuff & make a real nice job of it.
Regards
