Sean's Kawi ZX6RR Build/Track Bike -CZ Wheel Porn!

If any of you are on the zx6r forum you've seen my build!

http://zx6r.com/zx6r/39732-sean-s-he...paint-job.html

Well decided to post it up here since the bike will be at the show. (maybe not the hello kitty fairings but as much of the work i've dropped into so far.

I currently DD my 04 ZX6RR picked up 2 days before christmas as a present to myself. $800 3752 Original Miles.

The main 2 reasons you see hello kitty on this bike is 1 on the forum there were jokes left and right about me wanting to have a hello kitty vinyl for my bike and 2 i have two lovely little daughters whose life consists of Hello Kitty. One day i was on the forum i was told to man up and do a hello kitty theme bike, so this is where i stand.


First Purchase and brought home!











Had a small spill with some damage and this is where my tear down started...

No this is for course track. I already have a drag bike. And after this little piece is done i'll be doing another drag turbo build DIY ordeal.

And i found it on craigslist from a guy in Jersey.

I posted when i first got it to maybe flip it... But in turn decided to keep it since 1 i did only get it for 800 and 2 kind of moving away from the gsxr's and branch a full knowledge on another brand.

Thanks man. Keep posted a lot of swapping and custom work to be done with in a few weeks.

Please put the exhaust back on, that custom exhaust is horrendous. Plus if you are going to use it for a track bike and not a drag bike why would you ever have anything hanging off that could catch the ground, provided you lean it that far. Also you may want to look into regulations for track days your exhaust might not pass a tech inspection.

It sits flush with the bike i hope you do realize that in the 1 picture with the fairing on (before it was angled and cut down a little more)... My pegs will scrape before the exhaust does.

Opinions are opinions in my mind. But i do accept them all. Track day regulations to the ones I go to anyway have no set decible limit. Not to mention the RR was from the factory gutted and catless.

I'll actually be painting my 1 set of fairings using a water based candy porn star pink and also a rat rod pearl white for the bike. Basically just using a detail gun (Concours) and most of it will be shot with a 1.8 tip.


This week while at work i'm doing a quick plasti dip thread with my bike since its become such a popular hit. Doing the forks, tail frame, frame face, side covers, and swing arm.
