I think you should do something like THIS

http://www.lazareth.org/pdf/1000compressor.pdf

Those are R1 headlights btw... you just have to think outside the box :nod: :D

Happy to draw up some ideas on paper if you wanna pop by sometime. :cool:

Need some more detailed pics for a proper design...
Engine
Radiator
rough idea for exhaust layout (do you just want straight pipes like a drag car? :paranoid: )
Hmmm... I smell food :D

Fit a full Thunderace bodykit on it.

At least Rutz will like it. :nod: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Seriously, the least bodywork the better, be a shame to cover that frame.
Rutz is my friend.

Yeah your right about keeping the frame exposed. :nod:

It's mainly the style I've been thinking about recently;
The rest of the build seems to have almost grown organically :retard: Shit I'm starting to sound like a presenter on a gardening programme :D
"Well hear down at the allotment today we see a lovely row of project bikes growing on the forum" I'll fetch my coat on the way out :whistle:

OK;
Fairing versus no fairing

Go extreme Andy. The style of the bike needs to match the performance and rolling chassis IMHO

Got to agree Paul :nod: I'll finish the rolling chassis.
Getting the new swing arm made to match the frame, going long to keep the front end planted (as much as possible). :paranoid:
Get the engine fully running, then give ya all a giggle :D
I'll see what she looks like once everthing's attached. :ninja:

Will have the looks to match the power then :) Extending swingarm limits your options to riding in straight lines for the most part, though with the power I guess you are aiming for (210-230hp with gas at a guess? More?) straight lines - marked by long trails of rubber ont he floor, might be your only option... :eek:
1125 kit's usually get about 165 plus bhp the supercharger adds approx 50% :unibrow: onto that so I'm hoping for 230-240bhp off the engine :evil: It's running a Nitrous cheater plate set up for an extra 50-100bhp depending which set up you choose :ninja:

I'll have to go extra length on the swing arm unfortunately because the above projected figures. :D
