Back in the shed

Had some time to sort out the shed, haven't really done this since last year when next doors tree fell through it. Just popped the r1 seat on just t see if I would work. It will need a bit of think, use the sub frame I made but lowered down, or cut part of the original sub frame . Why does honda spend all that money creating an aluminium frame and then putting a nasty steal frame for the rider and passenger.

The photo doesn't really give the proper angle but it is interesting to see how it looks. Much too high so imagine it dropped shout 50mm.

New seat

I have bought 2 seats, one for my Trx and one for the Vfr, this blue r1 2006 model grp is a bit battered but I'll use it for a new rear seat sub frame I will make. The current seat height is far too high which gave me too much load onto my arms, lowering the seat height will solve this. So as you are aware I'm fixing 2 bikes, checkout my other blog, trx850racer, link on page.
