Hi folks

So my XV750 project has to take a bow and leave the stage, I haven't really been able to make much progress since marrying and moving, so she who must be obeyed and I "agreed" it was time to let her go. Sad Face..

So she has a GSXR front end from an '03 with a cognito moto stem and All Balls tapered bearings. You will need a new bearing kit, because the races are definitely staying where they are. As the triples offfset and stem diameter are different from '03 to the '06+ that Cognito usually work with, I had the top triple bored with the correct offset bored out to the correct stem diameter. Triple is drilled for risers but I will also include the clipons I got originally.

As you can see from the photos I'd also done a lot to the wiring on the GSXR switchgear so now it will plug and play with the XV harness. Boom. The original Yammy fusebox is also right in place which looks great but doesn't have to stay if you want to go a different direction

Front end also comes with Wheel and brake discs, with the Tokico six-pot calipers. I've bled these and they are excellent. I also put brand new pads in them. Tire on the wheel is fine, not new but certainly rideable. Paint on the wheel is black and TBH a little average. Wheel does have brand new bearings and seals.

Paid $1200 for the lot. asking $900

Back end - This is a hageman's sub frame with tank lift and all mounting hardware included. This has had a seat loop from dime city professionally welded in, and nicely ground down. This was welded with some smalelr dia tube telescoped inside so is very strong. Attached to this will also be the gorgeous tuffside seat. This is brand new and has never been exposed to the elements at all. Subframe is in Black. Underside is drilled for the suspension adjuster and the Rec/Reg

Paid $600 for the Hageman kit, $300 for the seat plus welding, painting and labor. Asking $600 the lot

Thanks for the helpful comment Canyoncarver.

The bike is in colorado springs, but I can 100% ship the items I listed and pretty much anything else bar the engine really.

Shame you are giving up. I've never understood using the wife as a reason.

I have been married 27 years to the same woman... learning that she has as much skin in the game as me was a hard lesson, but we now make every decision that spends significant money together and it damn sure has made life much easier...

Thinking you wear the pants and rule your woman is pure Bull Shit and you know it.

Good Luck with the sale mang! :eek:

Sorry man, your comment just struck me as odd. No worries, good luck with the sale.
 
Hi all. Exhaust, air filter and rear sets have now sold. I have quite a lot of spares for this bike accumulated, including two clean sets of carbs. Anyone wants a part even if it isn't listed, just let me know.

Hi Matt,
Interested in the linkage between rear sets and the modified brake arm and between rear set and shifter w/ modified shifter arm. I am assuming it will be the same as the XV920.

OK Folks. Bike is now completely stripped down, pile of parts on the shelves now more than a bike. There are two clean sets of carbs, spare tank in reasonable condition, plus all manner of electrical spares etc. I also have the original front end plus the GSXR one is pulled and cleaned up. If this doesn't go I'll throw it on my GSF in a few weeks.

If anyone wants anything, big or small, just holler!
