    Default Who wants to race?! Buford hwy, right now!

    I know some of you were like "this kids an asshole" Nah, just a joke, cus I can't race...here's progress of my bike. Stripping it down to the frame and going to get it painted/powder coated. I also bought a powder coating kit to do a lot of the work my self. I just can't figure out what colors I want yet. I wish I could find some1's quote where it said "Knowing you Ant, it wont take long before you start making this one unique and stand out" Or something along those lines. lol

    Subframe is ready to come off, kick stand is all off, whole nose is off, now I need to drain my fluids, and work on the engine and wiring harness area.

    That's not torn down yet - you have to strip it down to frame.
    I have Sung's 7RR all apart in my garage. All has been powdercoated wrinkle black ,and all CF bodywork is here. Engine is big bore, and an old school Muzzy titanium exhaust shipped in. Have the AP M/C etc for it. Complete real race bike with 4 sets of Marchesini wheels.

    It will be if I get around to putting it together. I've been either too busy or too lazy for months.

    Why are you going to powdercoat the frame and swingarm blk when they are already blk? Do you have scratches? Remember once you do that you have to rebearing the whole frame and swingarm. It's not bad but pretty tedious just to be doing it. Good luck though. I know it will come out looking bad ass.

    Oh and try not to put your fairings on the ground. They tend to get light scratches. Always hang them. Some people have have premonitions about fairings touching the ground as a bad sign also.

    ^Exactly. I'm not. I am thinking of doing them midnight blue or electric blue.

    I've gotton more done but keep forgetting tools I need at the shop.

    AHAH this is true. I did some more work to it only to find out that I need two large ass allen's that are at my shop so they stopped me from working further. So i wasn't able to remove the front wheel or swing arm. I'm going to go flat black parts. Midnight blue frame. White fairings.

    if you do the white wheels i think you will hate it. some of my buddies have tried it and they had to carry a rag in there pocket so everytime we stoped they could wipe them down lol. most of them are in some type of candy powder coat now.

    but then again mine are black and i still wipe them down almost everytime

    Yeah I was gonna say the same thing!! White wheels are a PITA!! Seriously. They look awesome when clean but look like pure shit when dirty. There's no middle ground.

    Well, I gave my engine to Doctor Dug. The exhaust valves wee WAY out of wack. He's going to remove the head, adjust them properly and I'm getting a thinner head gasket.

    Why were they out of wack? What you been doing? Are they bent or just need to be adjusted? How many miles do you have on your R6?

    I have 22k miles on it. He said it could have been from moisture since I didn't have the header on it and the engine was just sitting there. Intakes were fine, probably due to me never taking the TB off.

    Nice. I won't be going that outrageous with it. But that would be nice to tell people it's stock and have all hidden mods.

    The valvesprings won't give you any power they'll just help it to rev higher safely. But I would try to get the cams degreed since he's already in there. 7hp from the headgasket and degreed stock cams on a R6 will be night and day. Hell on any bike it will be night and day. Do you already have a PC3 or Bazzaz? If not I'd go ahead and order one and get it tuned. Even with just the thin headgasket and exhaust you'll definitely need a new tune. Motomummy.com is selling the PC3s for $265 shipped!! I just got my PC5 from them last week. Got here in 2 days!!

    I'm not an idiot. And they do "add" power but not letting the valves float or be inconsistent. I build my Mustang engine 6 times, myself. I dont have a PC3 yet. i will talk to the guy and see what he can do with the cams. Plus I am trying to find an EVO IX. Arg!

    hmmm...DOn't go gloss black. Matte black is nice, but a lil played out. Isn't yours a graphite grey color? I would stick with that. It's a beautiful color.

    Lemme go call my friend/friend of the family/customer and hop in his 1600 hp (TO THE GROUND!) Dodge Viper....
