Steve's Honda's repair log

[rock_it]

No probs mate... Mrs was OK.. Hehehehe... Did some wedding stuff tonight to make up for the time away.... Lol...

Well you know my thoughts on the colour.. Just either way, get new pin stripes.. Orange or purple... That will finish it...

You wasted no time stripping it.. But yeah if you need a hand putting it back together let us know...

[bushido]

hehe like I said I was going to tackle one of my many uni assignments mate..lol it didnt happen.

But thanks on the offer Craig. I might hit you up on it when I get all the parts. BTW if you want to ride the Honda just let me know. Figured its better someone riding it than just sitting there lol.

[rock_it]

No probs mate..

Lets just hope your dad takes delivery.. Or I can pick up from the shop.. That Simon seems like a nice enough bloke..

And good luck with the assignment... Hehehe..

[bushido]

lolo just some piccies I wipped up of possible colour combos.

Opinions/preferences?





Note that the purple combo comes with the Matte black (awesome IMO) and the orange combo comes with a gloss black

[rock_it]

Purple with purple wheel stripes...

Pic one looks good.

[KJ_bob]

pic 3.. but follow the rossi colours up onto the tank

[bushido]

I like how the tank is different on the orange option. Although purple rims and purple rossi is awesome. you guys cant call me queer if i do get that though

[rock_it]

Flat black makes the purple manly... Hehehehe

[J]

i like the orange/yellow but all the repsol bikes have that scheme

i think the purple makes it look less agressive and fruity. i like the white rim tape over the purple though

[bushido]

MUAHAHAHA!! MY ARM IS OUT OF THE CAST!! ..






















..........but now its even weaker and i cant fully extend the elbow. hope time will ease it back.

some xray pics.

dam look how deep these screws go in lol




i didnt like the look of the cuts argh. and the stitches hurt to get taken out.

[aza013]

Lol the xrays looks cool

[rock_it]

f**king Ouch man...

[KJ_bob]

Thats messed up... looks like they just randomly went to town with a power drill

[bushido]

hehe who knows what else they would have gone to town on

[J]

f**k, scars are awesome.

chicks digg it... though boarding a plane might suck now

[koolio1234]

you are the terminator

[Bennoz]

Nice!

Was your arm all hairy & skinny when the cast came off? I also like it how it feels all lights & airy without the cast weight for the first few hours

[bushido]

hairy lol. Skinny VERY yes.

love the "mobility"

[bushido]

so an update.

Got all the little bits and pieces that needed to be replaced yesterday morning.

Here they are on my bed;


1. adjustable rearsets
2. adjustable shorty levers
3. front yoke fairing stay bracket
4. carbon mirrors

Here are some pics of what I have done today.



Craig I broke the handlebar bolts and readjusted the postion of the levers. Much better now!



couldnt fit the shifter because the gearbox knuckle thing is the wrong size so I had to improve






rim tape was a bitch to take off yesterday. good part of almost three hours lol

And a final pic o my arm! healing nicely



This is the worse looking scar of the two.

So two more weeks until I get the fairings and then my build will be complete!
