1996 Honda VFR750SF (part 7)
Time for some carbon fiber fun...All my parts were cosmetic, so a simple overlay process was all it took to score a high end look.
Sanding and a coat of auto grade clear adds UV protection and brings out the depth that carbon is known for.
I didn't like the heavy steel caliper torque arm the factory provided, so I made a lighter one from aluminum.
Rear cylinders got coil-on-plugs from a GSXR (600, IIRC) to get rid of the bulky stock coils that I didn't really have room for.
Seat lock lock hole was filled in
Last year, I painted all the parts.
Digital slim ballast HID hi/lo kit goes in here:Made my own brackets for the fluid reservoirs
Made a coolant overflow tank
I got the idea to make some fork sliders... ordered some blue Delrin. I was expecting it to be darker blue, but I like how it turned out.
While my mind was on functional dress-up items, I thought up this wheel plug/hub slider combo.
