UPDATE...900ss Project (PIC HEAVY)

[Duck-Stew]

What do you need?!?

[vampireduc]

bars (clipons...considered replacing the upper triple and going with a monster setup), mirrors (bar end), and one Right hand OEM brake lever

chain/ sprocket

key switch...and assoc shenanigans

Someone that can weld.  I want to move my ignition coils under the seat and need a bracket manufactured.

and a still want a monster head light/ gauge set up

this is all I can think of needed to make it road worthy, outside of the oil change.  I want it on the road...I'll get nutty with it later.  I need a riding bike while I have a project, I didn't think that part out so well.

trip home...'99 750ss (parts machine)


the damage...


the girls getting to know one another...


the transfer has begun!  The 900ss will ridable soon. Still looking for headlights that will be "streetfighterish"

With the 750 I also got and extra tank, shark skin racing fairings, and brand new flush mount turn signals (not installed before he wrecked the bike)
I don't believe that the 750's frame is salvageable...so looking for someone that can weld and has frame experience and go chopper on it like the duccutters "Jupiter"

what about something like this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370220842675&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT



maybe with a hid conversion or something? the Kawasaki z1000's have a similar headlight design as well...?

[truckinduc]

I build custom streetfighter headlights based on what the customer wants. What kind of light are you thinking about?

[vampireduc]

i like celli's...the 749/999 look.  over and under or this type idea...

i still have not decided what to do with my gauges either...I know motogadets makes good setups , I'm not trying to spend more on my gauges than I did on the bike

[truckinduc]

I Have a Motogadet on my gsxr streetfighter at the moment.  For the price I dont think you can beat an acewell or trail tech veypor gauge.

Here is an example of the lights I make





Not finished yet,

[vampireduc]

I dig the bottom one!  How much to make me one... Do you also make the mounting gear for it too?

[Triple J]

Those lights look cool! PM sent.

Hey VampireDuc,

I just picked up a 99 900SS yesterday from some hillbillies dirt farm in some shithole town of South Carolina with intentions of a neat little Road/Track custom project.

Anyways I figure we may be able to help each other out, as I need a few parts, and your parts bike may be able to supply them:

Headlight fairing, complete (scratches ok, no cracks though please).
Right side clip on bar.
Exhaust system or cans (oem or aftermarket).

Let me know what you may have, and I can provide cash or parts to help your project.

Thank you,
Randy

Updates and pictures, please.

last log-in ...Aug of 2009!!!  I can't believe that I have been that busy!  I have such an ache to get this bike up and running, but am fighting issues needing new tires, chain, sproket, and the wiring is kicking my butt.  Long Story short, starting a new job and jumping back and forth between home and the desert those poor bikes have done nothing but sit.

BellissiMoto...I have Cans, I have a headlight fairing (i think it may be cracked...I haven't seen it in a while), headlight, DO NOT have the clip on- that was one of the pieces I stole from my parts bike.  I do have Sharkskin Racing Fairings if you are interested.

Good to finally find my way back to the list.  I hope when I get home in a month or so, I can put in some real hours on the moto!

Bump - Is it still a project, VampireDuc?
