Newb from Straya

Hey all, had my 05 VTR for a year now, bought as a lowside with a clear title for $1k, always had plans for it. Since buying I have put a GTR1400 USD front with radial brakes, ZX14 wheels, CBR954 triple with ABM billet riser yoke, 05 CBR1K tail, Husky Nuda 900 front guard, Racetech headlight, 2-1 exhaust with straight through Jardine ( needs new can or at least baffle), removed all intake rubbish, CBR1K stick coils, Vapor dash, about 35kg weight reduction, other bits and pieces. Paint is only spraycan, was thinking to get it done pro, maybe even go with a Repsol, Castrol or HRC scheme. Still have lots to do on it

I dig it. Looks to be sorted quite nice.

Two things. One, is there really a headlight? And two, did you loop your oil cooler lines?

Yeah I love how the wheels looked, they were originally plain silver, but I had the black and polish in my head and turned out pretty good. Yeah it scares the **** out of everyone especially when it explodes to life, def need to quieten it down. Little. Have to tag along with Harleys to avoid noise defects

Looks good, like the wheels and tail.

Where are you located in Oz, would love to hear how loud it is.

Welcome!

I live near Kangaroo Valley, a well known bikers haunt.

If you are ever down that way give me a shout.(P.M me)

I would like to see your bike in the flesh.

Cheers
