does the rear end norm stand that tall on a B12?/ or did you use a jack-upkit? or was it frame mods to make the rear end stick up like that.  thanks

Looks great! What shock is that you have on? Have you had a chace to find or work out any bugs, as far as how she handles. Definatly a nice clean look. Well done!

Great looking street fighter. So many riders now try to buy a street fighter, they seem to forget half the idea of a true street fighter is a bike that you personalized yourself. Great job!!!

Which shock do you mean the rear (Honda Rc51)
or the front (94 gsxr).

Either way - I guess I answered that question, huh?

Front shocks are going to get new seals, and then it's ready to go.  Will let you know how she rides.

Dizzzam!  Your bike rocks.  You should wright a bit "how to".  There are so many mods here...the tail, the inverted forks, the handle bars, the windshield, the lights.

I've looked at Streetfighters for a long time, yours is the first that is really cool, and doesn't look like an insect.

Paint came out nice, like the front end also.

One question though, why do you have the bars canted back so far. Is it to clear the masters on the gauges or is that how you prefer them? Do you have tank clearance when going full lock-to-lock?
