I will do my best to acknowledge all of the major contributers along the way. And again, a special thanks!

These are the before Pics...

Ok - Here we go... This is what I'm having done:
Wheels are actually at Custom Works Plating via HammerChrome for Chromming w/Red Chome spokes.

Swingarm is getting the No-Box Mod & Under-Bracing via Doug at Spencer Cycles. And then it is off to HammerChrome for bling... I'm tired of polishing!

Here is an in progress shot:

The Triple Clamp & Billet Stator Cover are being chromed by Jon at Sport Chrome as a trade deal.

I've modded the front fairing to prevent the air from blowing inside at me.

The Mirrors I will be using are the CBR-XX to be used for turn signals too. I have clear lenses for them from Charles at Street & Track.

CBR-XX Mirror Mod
The mirrors are close to being a direct bolt on. You will have to route the wires through the upper fairing and you have the choice of using the XX running lights too. (3-wire versus Busa 2-wire)

You must drill a hole to match the Busa's mounting flange:

To allow a bolt to fit, you must bevel off some material when the mirror is folded:

And here are the clear lenses from Charles at Street & Track:

I will be doing the graphics with the help of a local paint shop. I had an Airbrush artist lined up but I had to cancel as She needed my bike rolling. Chromers are taking entirely too long!

The colors will be Blue & White with a Red logo... I will leave it at that for now.

Lowering the front fender a 1/2 inch for added clearance.

This is old, but shows how I did it:

Note the rear hole has to be drill and the plastic trimmed - No other mods to the fender itself.

I used standard 530 chain link side plates. Just tap the bottom hole to use the original bolts. The top hole must be opened up (drilled) to permit the securing bolt to pass through it.

You may have to elongate bottom hole in the black plastic gromet for proper fit (not the fender).

Note the rear fender hole. It is nearly perpendicular to the front top hole. Drill large enough to accept the plastic gromet and trim away the excess fender plastic so it doesn't rub the support post (where the bolt attaches to the fender).

Be sure to use a sixty (60) series profile tire for added tire/fender clearance and you will have no worries.

If you want to go lower, use 630 Chain side links, I don't recommend it though.

More old stuff, but again shows how I did it.

Water tank location:

Water & Air Tank. Note brackets, they are very secure.

Water tank viewed from above.

Here shows how well it fit inside the fairing.

Soupy's Trac Triple tree Bars.
To prevent the controls from hitting your dash (note my dash around the the outside lower edges. And they prevent the throttle cables from rubbing the inner plastics, maybe I'll paint mine now?).

With a little shaving (grinding) of the right side controls and re-drilling the location hole, the Tether Kill can be made to fit nicely.

Billet Oil Pan Mod for making a Full Pipe fit.
I have been beggin anyone to do this as I knew it could be done...

So I did it myself!
It clears the Velocity 2.5 inch pipe under the pan and it does not interfer with the oil's swivel pickup!

If you have access to some aluminum pipe, just slice out a section and insert. I bent mine fron some sheet stock I had.
It is a tight fit and not all exhaust are the same, so be sure to measure twice.

I would rather ding an exhaust than bash my pan! And now I can swap exhaust without swapping pans too...

nice

will i need to lower my front fender when using the trac raked triples?

JorNic Motorsports · « **Reply #11 on:** April 06, 2005, 12:51:11 AM »

no soup, you wont. just gives a bit more room for lowering and stuffing a big fat compressor and intercooler in there. I have a Catalyst 60 series fender. fits a 60 series tire like a glove.

The pan looks great Jerry. How much oil does it hold now?

YAG · « **Reply #13 on:** April 07, 2005, 06:28:08 PM »

Wow... I like the pan... I wish someone would start making something like that!

I estimate about 1/3rd of a liter less now - Or back to about the stock capacity.
If some would measure a Billet pan with water and pour it into a measuring cup, I'll do the same so we can know for sure...

Well... my wheels still are not back from the platers so my airbrush artist could not do my painting for me. So I will be handling it with the help of a local paint shop. Talk about trying to communicate "custom paint" with nothing but broken English...

Here is the start of a four step color process:
First the Red

As the colors come in for me to do the taping, I'll post pics. Hopefully it will be done in a couple weeks.

That red looks awesome!

Bike looks sweet so far...

Scary-Jerry · « **Reply #19 on:** May 13, 2005, 01:46:17 PM »

You won't be seeing much of the Red when it is finished.
But it should match the Candy Red Chromed wheels and set off the other colors really nice.

The Red is actually going to be used as a 'Kanji morphed into somewhat of a Phoenix'. Think about it...

That's enough of letting the cat out of the bag for now...

Here is my new TMH Billet Slave Support. It arrived today and I am awaiting everything else, so I shined it up and put it on. Quality parts!

got a pick with the oil pan on and the return line routing and fittings? I bought a pan but haven't installed it yet? It looks like I'm gonna have to change the fitting on the turbo to get it to work???

I'm running an Oil Cooler too, so here are some pics of all the return lines.
Not to mention, I modded my pan to fit a full exhaust, so it may not completely resemble yours. Hope this helps.
