Gray,
Very cool! I used to work at an HD/Buell shop for years while going to grad-school; one of the funnest times of my life. Love the O.G. Lightnings...just a fantastic bike. Nice that you got a Millinium and you "know" what it is.
Also glad you cleared up that you were painting a 'spare' set of plastic...almost pooped there when you said you were painting the plastics... heh-heh-heh!!!

My cafe inspired fighter.

'93 Honda CBR900RR chassis
Honda 919 motor
39mm FCR carbs
V&H ignition (being replaced w/ dyna 2000)
One off 4-1 GP style pipe using a cut down yoshi can
Fox twin clicker shock
Fiberglass cafe-ish tail w/ home made LED strip taillight
custom subframe (only half done in pics)
custom lights made of driving lights modded to take BMW H7 headlight blubs (HID coming soon)
Paint was done by me, tank graphic is from the "Queen anne's revenge", black beards flag ship.
No signals, or mirrors TINY digital tach/speedo (not in pics)

All the work was done while i was in a wheel chair from binning a different bike, learned alot about welding, glassing and well just about everything. Right now she is coming appart to get a VFR single sided swinger and a CBR1000RR front end. Later in the year she is coming appart for some motor work and a direct port nitro setup, shooting for 200hp on the juice. Im also picking up a pair of CB550s this week for me and my room-mate, its going to be a busy building year.

Really nice bikes, I like the Tartan seat! Sets it apart. Is that graphic on the tank the flag from Queen Anne's revenge, Blackbeards ship?

having a job at Cycle Gear might be a bad thing...esp with a 10% over cost discount
 
I am thinking you should take the tassels of the scooter handle bars in the background and put them on the buel, well, maybe not!! ;) ;) ;) ;)

lol those would make a great addition...don't tempt me...i'm the kind of silly person to do that
 
Not really the right thread for the cafe bike my man, try the cafe section! you'd get some more responses over there. This is a street-fighter thread...

I've just copied this again so we can see it again... :p

That exhaust is probably worth more than all my bikes combined...and is that a one piece tank/seat/tail??

And slicks? You're racing this one??

I don't race it, just street riding. I'm not running the slicks, that was just a set I used when I mocked it up. I'm running some Contis now. The tail is a fiberglass CBR600 aftermarket piece. The section between the seat and tank I fabbed along with the undertail. The subframe is a modified CBR600. Most of the bike is one off, including the frame, rearsets, etc.

Here's a side shot.
