Still not ready for the 'Big Reveal' have to finish the tank. But I did add some pictures of the exhaust and rear suspension mounting points in the original post. I hope to have the tank done by the end of this week or the end of next, then I will post up pictures of the finished project :thumbup:

:D...and another thing...The health of our current electric grid can barely handle the increase in power consumption from AC's during hot weather. Definitely need to invest in that or get each of us to start producing our own electricity on site, where we use it, solar, wind, fuel cell...

Yes to all of the above, however, it is a little more complicated as electric motors are more efficient thus recouping some (not all) of the loss from the conversion of fossil fuels to electricity. A gasoline engine is about 25% - 30% efficient, meaning about 70% - 75% of the energy converted...

Yes, In fact when my petrol motor gives out my next mod will be an electric conversion. I have been contemplating getting in touch with the folks at Brammo (100% Electric Motorcycle : Brammo Empulse and Enertia Home) to see if they would be willing to set me up with their Empulse powerplant and...

The r6s forkswap is pretty straight forward, just the addition of some spacers. The r6r swap is a whole-nother ball game :D

There would definitely need to be some fabrication. The FZ6 shock mounts under the left-butt cheek, the R6 mounts in the center, you might be able to avoid the dog bone mount by having a brace or mounting point welded to the bottom of the R6 swingarm but it would make more sense to just add a...

I fabricated a new subframe to accommodate the shock and the 'bobbed' seat at the top. For the bottom mount, there is a brace that runs across the bottom below the swing arm mount. I added a mounting point on this to mount the dog bone linkage.

I appreciate the offer, but the exhaust is done :D

Yes, it is an integrated taillight with blinkers tucked up under the seat.

Not mad, unaware :D I am very close to completion. In fact I am fitting the final pieces this week and then washing her up on Saturday. I still have one final project that may take a week or more. After that I will post up the completed project with pictures, and hopefully a drive by of the...

Happy birthday, hope its a great one :)

Nice :thumbup:

Quite simply put...just assume that you are invisible at all times irregardless of what you wear or what the bike sounds like.

Of course it can be done! :D

Picture of completed subframe components posted in original post.

Happy Birthday you old bloke :thumbup:

Smoked, not very bright.

I don't know, I made mine out of sheet aluminum and 2 Hella offroad lights. That being said I did a quick search on Google for Street Fighter Headlight conversion and got back 4 pages under shopping.

1. I got the carbon fiber tubing here: Carbon Fiber Tubing 2. The R6 swingarm conversion is complete, just working on fabricating the new subframe for the seat. I am holding off on photos and updates until I finish the whole project, hopefully by the end of June.

Very kind of you Cliff, but let the record reflect that I bought the Carbon Fiber Tubing, I did not wrap it myself :D
