Looking at the bottom of the rear master cylinder, I'm not sure how to connect a rod/plunger.

Any ideas???

Been prepping the outside of these panels for paint and spraying the inside satin black. I removed the stickers carefully with a heat gun.

Yesterday I ordered the intake, float bowl magnets, oil drain magnet, water pump impeller, tinted windscreen, and throttle.

Talked to the machine shop today. They still haven't started on the spacers for the handlebar clamps. [Friday will be 2 weeks since I dropped off the parts.]

I'm probably going with a gold or blue Rizoma front brake reservoir. I'll have to wait until the windscreen is mounted before deciding on an exact location.






I might get rid of the tube-style rear master cylinder, and get a small Rizoma reservoir, instead.

Inside the bucket, I found the Ducati headlight has a second bulb inside. It's a 4W parking lamp. Now looking for an HID kit with xenon bulbs.

Caliper trial fitting:

I had to pull out these spacers and install larger ones because the Brembo calipers don't fit over the larger '06 - '08 GSXR rotors.

I got these from a dude named Borut in Slovenia:

One module is an electronic CDI, one is a Programmable CDI Control Module, and one is a Programmable Control Module for the Electronic Exhaust Valves.

With the handheld programmer below, I can map pretty much any ignition advance curve or power valve response.

The welds are works of art, the best I've ever seen.
