Urban Assault Vehicle .... My FZR 1000 (RU)
Hello all,
http://www.srd-bikes.com/history.html... This was the original bike I bought off a friend. Not exactly like you see it there, but the white frame and wheels etc. had been done and it was a streetfighter.
I then rebuilt it for my company http://www.srd-bikes.com
It's 99% finished. You may notice a few details missing
I was thinking about selling it, but considering the current market, I MAY be tempted to ride it afterall.
IT'S BRAND NEW, every nut and bolt and bearing. The engine is blueprinted with gas flowed head & stage 3 Carbs and it has a 1/4 turn throttle + a few other little tweaks
The bike is now 7', yes, 2.1m long from the tips of the tyres
Do you recognise any of the parts used?
It actually has different bars on it now and BREMBO master cylinders
Oh... almost forgot... at night it looks like THIS http://www.srd-bikes.com/meamachine_Lrg.html
Hope you like it

You are right on all counts....apness wrote:Not sure where the MOT man would start with that, plus you might get interested coppers poking about and rubbiong their hands Looks like a nice machine though. As you say, current climate not good and bikes only worth what someone will pay, unfortunately this is usually less than what you sunk into it
My advice - enjoy it
Probably next year... I gave up on summer sometime in June and aside from this weekend where we are forecast sun, i reckon rain and wind is the best we can hope for
You need an MOT? They wouldn't have a sheet big enough
Seriously though... that exhaust with stage 3 carbs (K&Ns directly on the carbs) sounds feckin awesome... best description is an 80s/90s F1 car especially the volume
Will try and find a way to upload the demo run in the garage
don't look as if it will ne a lot for a mot
indicators
rear red reflector
little bigger number plate
chain gaurd
someting the make the exhaust muffled e.g a srtip of all to with a pipe bit on to cover the end whilst in the mot
as long as you have a rear light it will go through mine did even tho was only ment to have daylight mot but he gave me a full on

I know what it needs. I even have the std EXUP dustbin can
The registration is the bigger issue.. kept the forks and engine... used an earlier frame and a ???? back end (edited to keep you guessing ;) )
just had a thought
i remember when my m8 changed a LOT of things on his bike like a 600 engine in a 400 frame and a vfr swinger they wanted him to Q plate it
not sure why or what they will say to your as it's def, not standard lol
i am sure there is someone on here with a better knolage on this than me
and about 2h trying to tell the insurace people what you have changed on the bike,
bloke i spoke to didn't have a clue when i said i made it into a naked bike and a stubby can i nearly wet my self at his dumbness (any how thats anouter topic lol)
