Well just joined up here as looks like a fun place to hang out 
Thought I would share some pics of my bike build, now this has been a project of mine for the last three years. Ive gone a little mental with it now tbh and its turning in to quite a Frankenstein's monster now tbh..
It started life as a mint 1998 Honda Fireblade
each winter ive done a little tinkering, first winter changed the paint and added VFR800 swinging arm and GSXRK4 tail.. Got it in Practical Sports Bike, more pics
The following Winter I went a little bit mental and decided to add the RR5 1000cc Fireblade motor so sourced a new 1996 frame and started hacking around with the angle grinder to make it all fit. At this point I decided to document the build on YouTube and ended up with a 28 episode build diary

Bike got quite a bit of attention and had a feature in FastBike mag, couple of pics
Well this winter I wanted to do something else with it and managed to find some MotoGP RCV body work for the bike so she changing again!
So thats where she is now, I have a friend who is making some carbon body work so have just upgraded the fairing to CF to match so should end up with 100% carbon body work which will look epics!! Will keep the thread updated on how I get on but little intro for you at least
