Why so late PC?  Why not plan on having the damn thing DONE by July 9th and then do a ride to celebrate both your birth and your tenacity with modifications?!?   ;D

BTW, I have your steering head bearings and front brake line.  [thumbsup]

NEW PIPES and Forks..

There is a little damage on the carbon fiber .. They are full arrows off an s2r 1k and got them for a steal from a salvaged bike.

I called Karl about fixing the carbon fiber .. Oh also I ordered a new end cap from arrow .. That will be here in 3 weeks.. :)

Here are the pics.

Oh my, not sure what's happened in his thread, but it sounds like a bike has been in pieces for a long time. I feel for this bike, only a few months left in this summer :'( I want to see this art when you get her all back together again!

Not necessary.  Want me to put these back together so you can sell 'em?

Apparently (not that anyone here cares about a Triumph on a Ducati forum....), there is a ZX9R rear shock that is a bolt-on for the Legend and is dramatically better than the stocker.  $60 shipped on Flea-bay and I should have it next week.  ;D

PC:  I'm going to my shop in the next couple days and will retrieve that front brake line for you...  [thumbsup]  Sorry I forgot before.
