    81 1100e reclamation, big plans!

    I just picked it up last night. 18, 000 miles, been sitting for 14 years. Needless to say it will need a lot of attention.
    The plans:
    -cbr 929 front, calipers, michilin 2ct, braided lines
    -rear end swap to be determined
    -carbon fiber over all bodywork (real stuff). I found some that is blue and black. The blue looks very similar to Suzuki blue. Ot ends up lookong glass smooth. I use 2k clear coat.
    LED signals, front and rear
    -powder coat what I can (black)
    -keep the Yosh exhaust and get it re-coated.
    -stock decals
    -polish cases, forks, swingarm, nuts, bolts and anything else that will polish.
    -replace any nuts or bolts that won't polish.
    -Superbike bars (if the clip on are too low, which they will be).
    I'm keeping the headlight assembly. To me it looks awesome.

    I'm taking lots of pics. I found a front end and picked it up today. Lots of parts to buy, lots of info to collect.
