After high-siding my FZ6N race bike @ 110km p/hr, nearly 4 months ago, today she was back on track!
I decided to fix it instead of parting it out.
2003 R6 forks, calipers and Dako adapter kit.
New YSS rear shock.
New Dunlop race tyres.
front wheel straightened and trued up.
$45 SC-Project chinese knock off exhaust, with custom cake tin, wired to the sub frame, to prevent fairings from overheating. (this exhaust is absolutely awesome...! HIGHLY ILLEGAL and redic loud but an absolute belter!!
Ebay 2nd hand sub frame, clip ons, and levers.
Major fibreglass repair on fairings.. (good thing i`m an average surfer and picked up this skill many years ago!)
Old GSX-R 1000 screen i had kicking around in the shed.
dodgy paint job and cloth tape #32.
... and after the 1st race meet of the year today .... I placed 3rd overall in my class!
So Stoked!!!
I was surprised at how much fear i still carried within, at the corner i high-sided on, but by race 4, I was having a good crack and dragging the knee again..
Bring on the championship season!!
