arrived in the mail today! ordered it only a week ago, so that means ima rebored these for my sbk forks, and managed to get the triples to me all the way from italy in a week!! amazing what a real business can do!! i think these are the first set of these triples down under aswell. to make this triple set work i have to make a fork clamp mounting system for the head lights and make up some brackets to fit the monster dials to the new upper triple. should be fun and pretty simple, just have to focus on the clean hidden design i want.

now all i need to do is drill a hole and bolt an eye into the roof of my underground garage so i can hang my monster and pull it all apart!! to go with these triples and showa sbk forks, i also have a showa 3 way rear shock, clip ons, 999 masters, twin lights, dp cf solo seat, another tank(still undecided on what colour to paint it), 5 spoke front and dss rear wheels, 999 front guard, chop the tail off, new indicators, and a few other billet/shiney parts and some currently used parts to i have to paint too (ie swingarm). should be a new monster once im finished 

on another note, im on my second week of having no license (which was the motivation to buy all the above and rebuild the monster since i cant ride it) and i have so far been blessed with only 2 dry days with which to walk to work! damn the govt and their nanny state speeding laws. and a small damn also goes to the weather gods and their sense of humour.

They look mighty fine.
Look forward to seeing pics of the end result

Sound like a load of things going on there.
What bike is this all happening to again?
I looked at that set of triples, they are priced really well. I just didn't want to have to source the items to put them together. Or should I say lean on my mate to make the necessary bits.
Sounds like it's going to be an amazing transformation though.
Good luck with it, looking forward to seeing it finished.

thanx guys,

mines an m800 dark. already have a few accesories such as dp billet mirors, dark seat cowl, high mount remus, tpo stacks, generic remaped ecu, relocated rectifier, no oil breather tank, and few others i prob have forgotten.

question for anyone local to caringbah that has a plastic tanked monster, i have a dp cf solo seat that fits my bike as well as pink neons would, if anyone local wants to come around, we can fit this seat to their bike and see if it works better on a plastic tank, that would be awesome!! then i can decide whether to get yet another tank, this time of the plastic variety to match the seat and the helper can decide if they would like to chase down one of these seats for themselves!! i might even throw in some laser game vouchers for the kids or kids at heart.. 

I'm in the local area and have the plastic tank bike you'd like to try it on.
Let me know when you'd like to try it out.

Hey Roaduser

If you would like a second bike to try the seat on I'm in Sylvania and have a S2R1000. I'd be interested in seeing your IMA triples.
I can drop over in the afternoons if it suits.

Nice looking triples! However, be careful if you have nice fancy brake lines. The sharp edges on those will scrape off the coating if you aren't careful while putting things together.  I did it with my Spiegler lines and the same triples, not a big deal as far as function, but an easy blemish to avoid.

cool, big thanx to matty and andy! im happy for either or both of you to come around. if u wanna check out the triples or seat its no problem at all ill have them both at the shop, Zone 3 Laser at 3 koonya crt, from midday to 9pm tmr and midday to 6pm weds. day off thurs/fri so at home nearly anytime, pm me for details. Cheers Guys.

I don't have the EXACT same things.  My bike is an M900 with SBK forks, I just have the IMA triples with the same sharp edges.  Didn't modify how my gauges or light go on at all.

bike porn!
