I suppose I could have said ' Now its got a liquid cooled 900 motor, the ageing Pantah derived air cooled 600 motor has been sold?'

Except that it's a 944 motor, and you're an even worse poet than me...

Well I was rhyming Gold with Sold better than Slow? I'm an illegal poet, I have no license!

Cool

I only did a small bit on the project today. I fitted the injectors, alloy custom intakes (after a bit of filing down on one of them), air filters and finally the battery box.

Trimmed to fit the frame:



No trimming for this beauty:



Ramair filters in place:



Modified battery box:



Internal rubber covering the filter top:



Everything is coming together:

I started with that type of filter on my Monster, they cost me around 5hp on the dyno.

Ended up getting (K&N made for FCR) stacks with filter fittings built in, not had it back on the dyno with them but it certainly feels better and filters the air properly too...

A decent day today.







Carbon ECU mount:





Ended up like this:



Next weekend, tyres on, wheels on and a rolling chassis.

Looking better all the time..

That would be an ST2 sidestand then?

You should be ashamed of the 8 ball...

I think it is an ST2 side stand, maybe!!

As for the '8 Ball' it was either this or an eyeball 🎱.

Did a little more today, although the fuel tank needs to be redone as the decals are not right yet.



Flat drag bars:







In a couple of weeks the loom will be put into position.

Fuse box and relays fitted:



The carbon mount, now full of holes:

Great quality along with the rest of the stuff he does.
