    Seems weird that there are companies that do the r7 conversion for the r1 and r6, for reasonable amount of money, but no similar alternatives for the YZF. I think the only differences between the R and the SP, are that the SP came with a closer cut gearbox, klein flatside carbs and single seat :roll:

    HI Mate, nice. I heard that the R7 fairings are pretty straightforward to fit, just need to make new brackets to hold the cone and instruments on. Do you know what sort of work is involved in fitting the R1 fairings? And what work is required to fit the R6 back? I would love the R1 back on my bike! 8) Let us know how you get on with the conversion :wink:

    Well i suppose im to start, i have a 94 YZF-750R, The main parts are of course a rear Ohlins shock, steering damper, new footstays, exhaust, backend conversion, and custom dream machine paint work, and a lot of polishing. I know its a bit old school now, as it is bloody heavy compared to the new bikes! What have you got?
