ST2R - mild concept

That's like one of those pics where some hot chick is taking naked selfies in her room where shit us all over the floor.

[Raux]

Yep, worse yet was the pic from the opposite direction, old mattress that I need bulk trash to pick up.

Yeah, you can see the wall down the middle of the airbox. Never looked in one before. Is it for noise? So you cut it out so each velocity stack has the draw of the whole airbox on each intake stroke, cool. Interested to see how she goes.

Interesting....

All 3 of our STs (2-'02,1-'01) do not have a split air box as shown.

Just one large box.

To allow for some weather protection and a more open box, we just cut out the back half of the cover. 

I can grab a photo if you'd like.

Nice progress.

Hmm, this is 98 euro spec.

The way the frame and swingarm tie together with colour and material design is so nice.
That's a special ST.

[Raux]

Thanks. Im hopinng the bronze wheels flow with the red and white

[Raux]

Is there any easy way to put that dang retainer clip on the rear eccentric?

[Anchorism]

Man..... not too much longer and it will be on the road again!!! And to think the last time I saw it, it was completely apart!

[Raux]

Ugh. So apparently the 748 brake hanger doesnt like the mts110 brake rotor. Thought I lost a spacer and after research found the later bikes with the magets on the rotor have a cutout on their hangers to make room for them. So, its either drill out magnets, change brake holder for one that has cutout but speedo holder, or buy a other rotor to fit. Hmmm have to check spare part stock...

[Raux]

But at least I found the right tool for the retainer clip today. Now I can take it on and off easily

[Raux]

Ugh. Sooo anyone trying this. The 748 uses a smaller rotor than s2r or mts. Off comes the fixed hanger. And on goes the s2r hanger. But finally rear wheel is on.  .

[Raux]

And drilling out rotor magnets sucks.
