The clutch reservoir bracket blows the whole thing... get rid of the bike.

Sign up for Summit on the 24th.

You should have seen me running around like a nut trying to get it done in time. It was the only thing left that needed to be done, and there was no time.
Good eye. LOL
How's your TLR coming along?

Not to bad...

Sorted the Brembo reservoir and bracket, ran the front and rear Goodridge lines (sorted the banjo issues I always have), changed the rear caliper and hanger to the lighter GSXR 1k setup ('01/'02), sorted the POS fairing stay and cleaned up the harness, mounted the Penske reservoir to the subframe and some other minor stuff.

Still need to fill the fluids (radiators, brakes, clutch & gas), finial fit the upper fairing, make a hanger for the TRS pipe and see if it will fire.

Go for the extra $ and use Engine Ice. You'll need most of 2 containers.

I use it in the TLS... The TLR will run water / Water Wetter.

I'll see if I can snap off a few pics when I get home of its current progress... It's been a while.

I still have to put on the Nissin radial brake caliper, been busy. I may wait until I get my brake rotors back from resurfacing and do it all at once.
I have to look and see which clutch MC I installed. Works OK, but I was annoyed with the design leaving no place for the reservior.

The controls. My clutch MC came with a bracket that works nicely. I only needed to cut down a hugh M10 bolt to fit it on.

Getting there...

Wheels look great!

I wish I got my Galespeeds in black....the white is a PITA to keep clean. One practice session on the track and they look like crap.

Nice bike, other than the color, how do you like the Type R wheels? I was close to ordering them for my bike. I just thought the 5 spoke design was better looking.
