New used UFO exhaust with quadzilla tips installed!

Took me 30 mins total time to install. Was nice and easy.

Gots me some Hayabusa Calipers today!!!

So I have R1 rotors and the Busa Calipers now. Just have to make a bracket to bolt them on. Install some lines and I will have some front brakes that are worth a shit now!!

I ll post some in process pictures and possibly do a video of the conversion for everyone.

CBR tail light should be here tomorrow.

Matt I got your wheels today. I ordered the Black powder last week, should be here tomorrow or Wednesday!

I hope my son can ride this to Thunder.
 
Made a new face plate.

Installed and lights on! Obviously you wont see the fuel or oil light upon start up.

Next is led lights to replace the factory crap lights and I am going to change the colors of the lights behind the plate as well. Maybe even the tach and temp guages.

Old anemic original...

Whats next.... oh yeah, my stator to rectifier wire melted about an hour ago.... the fun begins!
 
As usual Todd, very nice work!
If I saw correctly, I will take one once you get production up and running. Will you have choices on colors? No hurry, I could pick one up at Thunder if that would work for you.
 
That turned out nice Todd. A little more grown up than what we talked about EH ( don't you agree):biglaugh:
 
Fixed a stator problem and installed a CBR 1000RR intergrated tail light.

Burnt ends

Mocking up the rear. Doing it different than last time.

Cut the rear off, trimmed it and tack welded the license plate assembly to hold the tail light and license plate together.

My son on the Max on our trip yesterday!

Look's great Todd, can't wait to see it in person, Tom was talking about getting together soon, we will have to ride over your way soon!
 
Looks great! I love the look of the Quadzilla. I'm also interested in purchasing a Tach/light cover that you made, if you decide to make more. They look awesome!
 
Patrick,
We should try and plan a weekend ride around the mitten again. I did it last year in two days, and we made it all the way up into the Soo and spent some time there. I wouldn't even mind a trip around the UP. I am going to try and hit Sleeping Bear Dunes soon for a weekend getaway also. I won't do ALOT of riding, mostly just camping and chilling out.
