Sold my old R6 Stunna awhile back and picked up this new one. Not too much needed to get it back together. New subframe, tail/undertail section, throttle tube/right handle switch, and some lil shit like rear seat, front brake reservoir etc.... Some things planned are 1. Strippin it down (not a real fan of fairings),2. Dent in the tank (fixing the one thats already in it),3. Make a shorty pipe,4. Repaint the tank, fender, headlight, tail/undertail,5. Rewire the fan,6. Reupholster seats lol. Then after that im gonna get a new set of cages, change the gearing, dirtbar conversion and some other fun stuff. Its winter so its not too big of a high priority.......but im prolly gonna do it all anyway haha.

What color are you going to do your cage in??

that same orange would be fucking awesome.

Im thinkn of doing the same orange on the cages so it pulls the color through the whole bike, or just leavin them black if im lazy lol. I got some extra paint from the other parts so I could do it its just that I would have to have them sent back to lincoln to get them done cus Idk anyone right now where Im moving who can paint. Which kinda sucks. Oh and its Lamborghini Orange lol i had it custom mixed for my bike :D

id do the tail pipe!!!!!

oh and i got a guy thats interested in you gixxer. he said he has to sell his first but he is interested though. is there anything wrong with it?

ltj482
12-03-2008, 04:34 PM
Lol ya that would look pretty sick, but ya mechanically there is nothing wrong with it. In the pic on its forum you could see that I had to switch out the stock stay for a 905 and I replaced the upper fairing cus of a stoppie gone bad. But everything is true and straight on it, so besides those aestetic things its in good condition. Im leavin for AZ Fri and will be back on the 20th for acouple days but if he actually wanted to check it out you or him could gimme a call and I could set somethin up so my bro could show it. Thanks alot for spreadin the word on it! Appreciate it man

12-11-2008, 04:37 AM
Ya man I still have it and a whole bunch of other parts just sittin in my garage. Just lemme know what your lookin for and we can figure somethin out.

well im looking for the whole headlight assembly the projectors, bulbs and everyting. i am hoping to get them relatively cheap on cost cuz i am a little short because work has been slow. or at least hold them till i get enough. i think that is all i would need to buy. let me know what you would want for them, that would be great.
