Hayabusa Track Bike - pan - 22-05-2010 Yep, I've talked about it for years (http://www.australian-hayabusa-club.com/MyBB/showthread.php?tid=9011) and planned it for the last year (http://www.australian-hayabusa-club.com/MyBB/showthread.php?tid=12383), and now it has begun. It's a 99 copper, "Number 262" ![]() Now looking more like this ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Hoping to revive the Sydney Secret Mod Group Spannering days in the months to come, and with a bit of luck we'll be seeing this racing around Eastern Creek (and other tracks) and showing those pesky little 250 two-strokes what corner speed is all about ![]() I'm after any (cheap) parts available that may come in handy, especially if they are scratched or dented, since it's only for a track bike. Please send PM's with any parts you may have to sell me. Things I still need at this stage: * Any top triple tree that may be lighter than stock/OEM * 4 into 1, any condition * A set of Carbon wheels, in case anyone has a set in the garage they don't use * Anything that's less heavy than stock/OEM bits Also, I'm aiming to make it as light and nimble as possible, so please let me know your thoughts on how to do this without spending a fortune...

Maybe drill some "speed holes" in the wheel rims, too. Protip: The wheels don't really need three spokes; two is quite sufficient.

RE: Hayabusa Track Bike - LOAFIE - 24-05-2010 Dont forget the Knobby tyres mate ![]() RE: Hayabusa Track Bike - pan - 24-05-2010 I love that photo! I love how it rained that day, we lapped Oran Park all day, and when I ran wide on the last session, even after going through the dirt, the kick-stand was still sparkling and clean!! RE: Hayabusa Track Bike - 09Fatboy - 26-05-2010 nice one Pan . I've got a polished gen 1 grab rail if you need it , won't make the bike go any quicker but bling is important as you have to look good too ,lol RE: Hayabusa Track Bike - Ward P - 26-05-2010 I note the black frame in the original photo of the "copper" so I take it, it started as a bits and pieces put together bike before you got to it?? So what year is it? (well most of it?) - ![]() ![]() P.S. congrats on the project, hope you have heaps of fun with it. RE: Hayabusa Track Bike - pan - 26-05-2010 It's a "REAL" copper bike Wardy! No. 262. The frame and swingarm have been spray painted black... |
