Default Post a picture of your bike & mods !!!!

I don't know what anyone rides here! I'm assuming Honda's, but you never know



2001 Honda CBR 600 F4i Red & White
Extreme Graphic Undertail
Jardine RT-One Pipe
Zero Gravity Double Bubble Dark Smoked Windscreen
Coming in the mail as we speak :
Intuitive Frame Sliders
Intuitive Bar Sliders

I live in San Diego. If anyone ever wants to cruise, just hit me up

That's all the modding I'm going to do for now. I'm going to buy a new bike in March. I'm not sure which one yet, 600cc or 1000cc, or which model, but I am definately going to buy a new bike. It's probably going to be between the new r1, the new gsxr 1000 (in all silver), or the 600rr.

I can hold my own on the curves unless I am riding with very good riders like my friends they will leave me pretty easy but they use to race in the AMA, CCS, WERA so I don't feel so bad beside I catch them on the striaghts pretty easally.

come on only 2 people with bike pics??1!1

Ebay 0wn3d me...and having a hookup at the local Honda shop sure didn't hurt either. The mods are worth it though - the bike feels like it shed 100 lb. in side-to-side transitions, and the brakes are nuts. Motor mods are overrated...suspension setup is where it's at

i am slowly coming to this realization. my wheezy air cooled 750 gets along quicker than what i consider sane. still researching my suspension geometry.

About the only thing that would improve your picture would be some pants and boots.

I have a two piece vanson race leather, a pair of Alpinestar GP pro boots and 3 aria helmets ( 2 rx7rr's and a quantum ). I don't were the pant unless I am at the track or going to be paticulary reckless, same with the boots. Although I might get a set of leather pant to match my Movistar jacket. I alway ride with a helmet and gloves.
madmatt: havn't perfected launching the beast yet so time arn't what they should be. I do run between 160-165Mph in the quarter though, and have gone 125+ in the 1/8th.

LOL busa, was talking to imortal, but that bike of yours is tight too. I have ridden with a guy who can really ride his. He can hang quite well with us on the street.

It's old , but still lots of fun down twisty roads and can hold its own on trackdays . Here are most of the mods but I'm sure I'm leaving some out . Think of it more along the lines of a nicely tuned B18 powered CRX than an NSX or whatever you'd want to compare a 954 to ! FWIW , it weighs ~ 325lbs ( real pounds , not claimed dry ) and makes ~ 72 hp .


frame and swingarm = 88 Hawk GT

forks : CBR 600F3 , revalved and resprung by Traxxion Dynamics
front brakes : Nissin 5/8 m/c , Russell lines , 900RR calipers and rotors with EBC HH pads on 3.5X17 Marchesini , Toby damper

clocks : GSXR tach ( stock tach doesn't register high enough) , Sigma speedo ( no speedo drive ) and OEM oil and neutral lights mounted on custom billet piece of No Parking sign .

rear brakes : rear line run through swingarm ( SSSA's are hollow , drill a hole and the line is hidden )

controls : Bangarang 2 piece billet clipons , CFM rearsets

driveline: Big Dick Technologies chain roller , AFAM 520 sprockets , DID Xring gold chain

rear suspension : Fox TC

subframe : was Hawkconnection/Motomorphic but is going to be replaced with a trick billet unit from http://www.hiperform.com ( check the site out , I think the same subframe idea would be great for other bikes , especially those who're doing underseat pipes )

back wheel : 5.5 Marchesini with 170/60 D207GP*

bodywork : chopped R1 upper with R6 lights , chopped RC45 seat


motor :JE 1mm over pistons , Ferrea valves , Kibblewhite springs , Two Brother Racing Ti retainers with their +1mm SS valves , heads ported by Street Bike Services , combustion chambers welded up and reprofiled , HRC 10.2 CDI Megacycle 174X8 cams , slotted sprockets , TBR adjustable ign. advance . Put together by me - scary - !

my fav mod : the can is held up by a crank stolen off my Trek !!!

The old race motor the heads formerly lived on is being rebuilt as a slower revving 700 on a Falicon crank with Carillos this winter . It's also getting streetfightered in a flat black/dayglo orange scheme .

About the only thing that would improve your picture would be some pants and boots.
yeah, my car is still in the process of being sold, once its sold i'm picking up a one piece suit. i'll use the jacket and jeans when i'm gonn go somewhere. if i'm going out just to ride, i'll be sportin the suit on the street. along with some sidi vertebra II boots. alpinestars tz1 all black suit...most likely.

I had some sidis boots and did not like them. I like my alpinstars MUCH better. I'd recomend riding with jeans only very infrequently, or not at all. The concrete is not softer on the days you wear them (But I'm guilty of wearing just jeans sometimes myself...)
