1989 Honda VFR750R "RC30"
Dymag magnesium wheels (17" rear)
Termignoni full exhaust system
Ported heads
Non std jetting
Large custom radiators (Pace)
different springs and suspension valving front and rear
Cast iron brake rotors and sintered pads
Custom made foot rest hangers and pegs.
Otherwise it's pretty much as Honda intended.
2005 Repsol Fireblade fitted with 2008 front end upgrade.
I also have a track R6 with:
Goodridge Brake Hoses
EBC HH pads
2CTs 120/70 conversion on front
-1/+2 Renthal 520 Race Chain and Sprocket Conversion
Race Fairing to be completed this winter
YEC Double Screen
YEC Crash Bungs
1/4-turn throttle
5mm shim in rear shock with Racelab setup
Arrow Exhaust (too big IMO, may swap for the Racefit Growler)
Airbox mods

Stops the bugger fromo drinking oil. I gave the blade about 16 miles before I got bored. Just don't bog the engine down in high gears.

what sort of power output are you getting from your RC30?Dymag magnesium wheels (17" rear)
Termignoni full exhaust system
Ported heads

Cast iron brake rotors and sintered pads

It now needs setting up on the rollers again. Hopefully I will get it fully sorted before spring. ( I work abroad, so all these projects seem to take for ever to complete)
It's always a bit risky speculating about power gains, but if I see anything over 115, I will be happy. The spread of torque from 6,000 to around 11,000 revs is very good, so the bike is quicker than the numbers may sugest. Even in std trim, it was slightly quicker than modern 600 supersports.

2001 ZX9R E1. Altered slightly from pic, now has double bubble screen and standard pipe. Will be fitting ignition advancer over winter. Also 98 CB500 for going to work on, currently on 54K miles and adding 300 a week..
very tidy 
very underated,cracking bike
The road bike; the 'ugly' Ducati Multistrada.
Mods done include - smaller front sprocket, open clutch cover and pressure plate from MPL Tuning with Speedymoto springs and caps. Givi rear rack for the best mod ever, a top case Quat-D full 2-1 exhaust system, which sounds amazing. The handguards and hugger were there when I bought it.
The track bike; a 2002 Ducati 900SS. It was lovely and shiny, until I did this to it in July at Mallory and knackered my hand;
She looked like this a few minutes before;
Since the crash, she's had Ducati Performance cans, a PCIII USB, rearsets and track bodywork. It'll look roughly like this ready for next season (I had all the bits off this 1000SS before it was sold
)
Also, between me and the other half we have a UK Honda NC30 which lives in the house and is completely standard
And an Aprilia RS250 which works when it feels like it and is probably the best bike ever made, ever
It was fine as standard, but we had some tuning work done and now it breaks every time you use it. It stopped halfway through the day this pic was taken, at Cadwell. It's got Arrow cans and Gilles rearsets.
