Did you find the ZX6 switch gear with the choke fitted easily enough?
Im thinking of using something like this for my YZF 750 street fighter.

Just been looking through my Ebay feedback trying to find the seller and discovered that the left hand switch gear on the old FZ is actually from a 99-02 R6 not a ZX6 as I suggested, still the sale is dated as 30 April 2008 so its no wonder I forgot!

no worries fitting it, just getting the wiring right that took the time, just make sure the right hand switchgear also has main/side/off lighting switch as well as kill/ start.

Afternoon all, I know its been a while, but things have been busy here in Norfolk.

Anyway, after the publication of the beast in Practical Sportsbikes

I've not really done much more to her bar paint the rear wheel and disc!

But now that the shoot is over I can post some pics of it in progress, I have to say I'm well impressed as to how well the pictures came out considering the light was fading at the time.

The actual images are about 8mb each so you can zoom in really close without losing detail.

So next in the never ending build is to try and sort out the side panels, whilst trying not to get distracted by the new project that has arrived!

It used to belong to Jim Moore the Editor of Practical Sportsbikes

something to keep me busy for the future, once this one gets finished!

Cheers Mike, how long did it take you?

Not finished yet, but closer than it was 4 years ago, got to get it finished as I have another project to play with!

Took a few hours with a few trips to the kettle for tea but was worth it.

Waiting for the next project to begin so I can read that one.

Kinda wish Id done a thread on my ZX12R on Kawasakiworld.com
