Posted October 30, 200618 yr As I feel the weight of impending fatherhood (any day now) and I have sold some of my toys, reducing my bikes down to 5 at the moment (and 1 kit car), I feel the need for a futile and rash purchase, maybe a v-max. Maybe I could street fighter it, then add a turbo? R1 USDs on the front? Oh god, I'm drooling into the keyboard.
October 30, 200618 yr how much u lookin to pay for a v-max? they are quick as fuck them things...my mates got one,which he's debating on selling..... and they sound...well....they make ur legs wet with pleasure..lol
October 30, 200618 yr Author I will probably look for one that’s had a front end smash that has killed the forks, but hopefully not the frame. Then look for a complete R1 front end (god bless ebay) and mate the two together in an unholy matrimony of speed and (hopefully) cornering ability! And a T2 smallish turbo thrown into the mix (nitrous?)
October 30, 200618 yr Author I am still yet to do anything with the CBR1000 lump sat in the corner of the garage, I had plans to build a single seater hill climb car using it, but so far its just been gathering dust! Maybe I could 'drop' it into an RD frame HMMMM? No that would be too far!??!
October 30, 200618 yr Moderator I got an aircooled 250 frame in me garden you can have no log book though merv
October 31, 200618 yr Author Realisticly I cannot consider another top project until I have finnished rebuilding my 2 gixxers, stripped and rebuilt my VFR 400, though I do regret selling my air cooled RD, with orginal (if somewhat rusty) pipes and speedblock paint job. Top silly bike Reg started BAA if its still out there? Though if I find a v-max with frontal damage at the right price, I may be forced to hide it in the garage and hope the missus does not notice!
October 31, 200618 yr im lookin for a vfr 400...or maybe a gixxers 600....or id like a husaburg 610s..sorry 4 the spelling... Rossboy
