Re: 80s repli racer for the street

Thanks alot guys! Well there was a huge delay with the machining for the rear end but it is standing on its own two feet for the time being. The rear end swap was a BITCH!!!!!! Now I am going to fit all the electrical and have the front wheel machined down, so I can loose the interceptor front.

Re: 80s repli racer for the street

Not a whole lot going on, waiting for the front wheel to be machined. Finished all the wiring I could, moded some aftermarket hurricane pegs to fit the interector mounts, fitted the new exhaust and the hurricane forks and calipers in the interceptors triples.



 
Re: 80s repli racer for the street

Ok, got the front wheel back, had the tire mounted installed 600 f1 bearings, waiting on f1 front axle. Mock up of as it sits now. hopefully be starting tank soon.


 
Re: 80s repli racer for the street

nothing to exciting, front wheel machined down everything bolts up! Cut down the 600 front fender, and mounted entire exhaust. Will be starting the tank in the next couple of day.
 
Re: 80s repli racer for the street

Could you please give me some information on that exhaust. And those tips(?). That looks sweet.

^ what he said. i've been searching, but no luck so far. i'm really digging the direction of this bike btw. i'll be following
 
Re: 80s repli racer for the street

Thanks guys! The exhaust colector is straight up vf500. The tips are suppertrapp external discs from summit racing, they are like $50 each. Like all super traps they adjustable for noise and flow.
Thanks again
 
Re: 80s repli racer for the street

You da man. I almost traded my cafe cruiser for an 83 vf500 this winter. Still wondering if I should have. You're making it worse
 
Re: 80s repli racer for the street

No real updates! Started modifing the tail so it sits on the rear subframe correctly, also started the tank. I have been doing alot of parts ordering, and picked the paint colors now I have to decide on the scheme. Here are the options on the table
something like this

Re: 80s repli racer for the street

+1! That glass work is magnificent!
 
Re: 80s repli racer for the street

Thanks guys! It all is hanging under it own power now! All that was needed was to add about 2 inches to the bottom of the lower to widen it, and some trimming here and there. windscreen came in here it is all mounted, this may be the last post till its done, hopefuly that will be soon.
