XJR1200 project

[Pat Conlon]

Very interesting. Can you shorten up that headlight bracket to bring those lights back closer to the fork tubes?

[FJ111200]

I could possibly cut them to length a bit, they are a bit too long i know, but the space might fill out a bit once i've got some clocks in there and the hydraulic hoses. Wishful thinking.

[Klavdy]

Yeah, what Paddy says, either shorten up the brackets or maybe a bigger light housing?

[FJ111200]

Couple of mods. Headlight brackets shortened by 2inches and rear frame filled and strengthened.

How big of a nitrous bottle can you fit out of sight behind the sidecovers?!   

Great project!

Looks a bit small for a 1200 when put into perspective.
Took me 8 weeks to get those twin silencers from Motad.
Anyway, slowly getting there, still need to figure something out for the tail unit.

That thing needs wheelie bars or a rider with really good wrist control. Great job, that project looks well done and awesome. Does it come in red and White?

Well i was a London despatch rider/courier for 13 years, so does that give me credit in the wrist control department 
It's still really thrown together but thanks, rough and ready me, needs a paint job, but if you're good with Paintshop on the old pc then fire away it might just take my fancy.

Is that a Thunder Ace swing arm? Regardless, a hugger from Pyrimid Plastics would look cool.

How long is your wheelbase?

awesome, ill have mine in black please    , maybe a twin round xjr tail light , looks good on my Fj,,, or one of those gsxr units ,led brake and indicators in two verticle strips

How long is your wheelbase?

It's a standard XJR1200 twin shock swingarm. Isn't the Thunderace a mono shock?
And the wheelbase is 1500mm, which is exactly the same spec as the 12 and 1300 XJR's. I thought it might have been shorter with using the 3CV forks with the XJR front wheel.

  awesome      , maybe a twin round xjr tail light , and indicators 

Thanks, sounds good, but what are in dic a tors? 

[Pat Conlon]

Oh yea, twin shock swingarm.....duh
