6 months (took our time, father and son project) = One HUGE smile on my face. This bike f'ing rocks. Not done yet, but it's out of the shop and on the road.

1000CC ?!?!?!?!? HOLY COW

Have you dynoed it ? lol prolly has more hp than our mazda

[Gizzmo_jr]

dyno maybe once I get the Jet kit in. And thinkin about a K&N filter. But even then, there insn't a bike dyno close by besides Shannonville IIRC.

Dude 600cc is fast enough for me.

[Gizzmo_jr]

This is the same engine as the RC-51. Vtwin, there's gobs of low end torque. Dad wants to switch up the sprockets, bloody thing is going to be a wheelie monster. Don't think I'm gonna let him thou.

Plan is to use the stock lower fairing, and make some fiberglass pieces just around the twin cooling rads. They kinda stick out now, maybe paint them black.

Ur dad owns a bike shop?

[Gizzmo_jr]

Works at, I used to as well. We're friends with the owner. Got to use one of the long term project work benches. Let me tell ya, that's the way to go for doing stuff like that.
