Motorcycle Repair Manual: 2014

Lights

Electrical disaster is almost done

Oil pressure warning light around the start push-button (not easy to capture in the daylight for a camera-newbie like me..)

This is (was) my sisters bike, a 93 Honda CBR 600F. Heavy, scratchy and clunky, but its still a bike.. One of the previous owners changed all the fairings with fiberglass ones, but it really wasnt a good job...

So, I started to "add lightness" removing, as usual, fairings and seat and adding a solo seat from a Triumph Thruxton Cup kit

Then Ive made some experiments with "fine" Potoshop actions....

Here with my favourite pin-up model...

Then comes the 70s fairing, a classic cone exhaust and a single "sided" headlamp from a speed triple

Looking good, but still too modern.. Lets find out another 70s goodie

Needs some adjustments..

Here we go!

Now its time to dismantle the bike to the bare frame and start "THE SUMO" project
Continue...sooner or later

The Sonic salt flats dream

Ok, someone teased me with this crazy idea, so I decided to try.

Please help me spread this around to make this dream come true.

Rewards and more details in the link below.

And may the spirit of Burt Munro be with you all!

Old vs New

Small progresses...

On the left a very vintage and chrome clutch lever plus horn and indicators switch

Machined a bit to fit the original clutch cable adjuster

On the right a brand new 19x21 Nissin radial brake pump.

I hope it isnt too much...I dont want to do a "stoppie" every crossing....

I like the contrast between left and right, but I have to figure out a way to change the modern aluminium lever with a chrome one

The seat first try

Fiberglass and a lot of work...its a very long way

You will see it only if you know its there

In the attempt of keeping down the temperature under the seat of "The Dirt-One" (all the electronics packed in such a small place can become very hot), I decided to turn all the alluminium plate under the seat in a big dissipator.

Also made an extention to act as mudguard/airbox

It looks like the rear diffuser on sports cars

Almost invisible when everything is in place... but you know its there..

Thanks Enrico!

A bit of polishing and a bit of light

King Shinya

A bike should look good on its own– but it’s incomplete until a person rides it
For me a motorcycle is more than art
It’s something that brings out my instincts– the wildness and vulnerability in me
It feels nothing like how violent it looks from the outside
It’s very serene

The ground and the sky are so white, there is no boundary between them
I have never flown, but it feels like flying in an airplane using a reciprocating engine
I can’t tell you how peaceful it is

The Dirt One turn signals

I wanted to keep everything as CLEAN as possible (even if its called the DIRT one...) and the turn signals are always a bit of a problem to "hide", even more if they are street legal.

So, quite easy at the front, mounted "bar-end" style with two small aluminum adaptor and the wires through the handlebar.
