ZXWUT?

Went to change the oil and put on my new stator cover today but it ended up being so much more. Tiffany took a long time to bring the oil over, so it turned into an adventure!

I'd never seen the inside of the generator before. Pretty interesting.




And on after I pryed the damned dowels out of the old cover for the new one.


I use Yamaha lube to make my Suzuki really fast!


Anyways, Tiff was taking forever with the oil, so I decided to remove the tail to put in the new smoked lenses. Then I decided that since I hate the passenger pegs and don't want them, I would do something about it. This is when it became time intensive. Took me about 5 or 6 hours to grind and sand that piece into what I wanted and have it look good. I think it turned out great!
















I like the new cover and lacking of passenger pegs. Now I just need Dave to get back from Texas and paint my plastics so I can put them on

Edit... so when is it gonna be done and running?

koorbloh

that's almost exactly what I did with my passenger pegs!

looks good dood!

ZXWUT?

It runs as is. I just still need Dave to paint the plastic. He should be back on the 25th. So another couple weeks probably. Keeps getting pushed back cause the military extended him for hurricane relief.

What happen to the cover u go down again man??? any ways i would say in to weeks your bike well be painted of the color in your choice

peace gangster

Cooley

word. so you enjoying that ZX14 in the time between?

ZXWUT?

Not really. I would have taken a couple of days to do what I did today, but I was really pushing to get the busa up again so I wouldn't have to ride the 14 anymore.

ZXWUT?

Oh, and if anyone has an 08 busa, if you get the yosh full exhaust, the filter won't come out unless you pull the lower radiator bracket. Wonder if they have fixed that yet. I just figured that out today. Pretty lame. Figure they would have designed the far right header tube about 2mm further south to prevent that.

those look good



you gonna come up hurricane ridge with us tomorrow?
Sunday 10/19 ride to Hurricane ridge

Mithras

now the chance to remove the stickers and wetsand the plastics......what are your thoughts on neon green with yellow and black stripes?

ZXWUT?

No need. Dave will be painting my brand new plastics when he gets back. Stickerless of course

ZXWUT?

Thanks man. It took forever to make. My fingers are sore from all the sanding
I'm not going to be able to make the Ridge tomorrow but I wish I could! You guys have fun and be safe.

krautBurner

so,

on your left one.....


you gonna take off the exhaust hanger too?
or make it match?

ZXWUT?

I didn't put it back on the left. I didn't want passenger pegs so I modified the right one and left the left one off. I would have just taken off the right one too but it needs some sort of bracket to hold the muffler up and this way was very free I'm very pleased with the way it turned out.

YamahaBlue

what did you spary the peg with? what color and paint is it?

ZXWUT?

Just some stuff I mixed up

YamahaBlue

whatever.

HeyTiffany

Ohh hush, it only took me like an hour.


Looks good =]

ZXWUT?

It only took you about an hour but that was enough time for me to get bored and start doing things that I didn't plan on doing
