Kawasaki ZXR special
| April 2008: It has been quite some time since something really was done on the bike. Or with it. I did manage to buy some more parts of this bike. But am still waiting on a set of wheels to arrive and a subframe. Also the front end I have not yet obtained somewhere. And the last thing is a gastank. I should be able to get hold of one soon so I can start with the setup of the subframe, rear shock, etc. But so far, so good. I still am quite busy on other bikes to get ready for the coming holidays so it's not that I don't have anything to wrench on! And I really want to take care of this bike in a way that costs are low and there's no pressure on this project. I still have good hope I will be able to make the first testrides around autumn this year. We'll see! |

Of

Here are a few pictures
of Eelco's R6. Eelco is the guy I bought the original bodywork from, he
now changed looks of his Yamaha to racing style. Looking very mean, it's always good to see a bike turn into something that matches with the owner! |
