Depends what is classified as a "'fighter" ........ Some people's perception is a sports bike that's had the fairings binned and the bodywork covered in matt-black, some people think it's a bandit with a loud can and twin-headlights, some people think they have to have renthall's, others think a bike can have clip-on's and still be a fighter ....... some people think you can just go and buy one from Ducati or Triumph ...... it all depend's on your personal perception of the genre

Does this count :?

Oh, and how modified does it have to be :wink: Mine has: Fat-bar conversion; Carbon-wrapped DNA Handlebar fairing; TLR Clock conversion; Yosh TLR Headers, one-off link pipes & Micron carbon cans; Relocated oil cooler; Relocated Coolant bottle; Transistor TRE; PCII; +3 rear sprocket; Hyperpro steering damper & 916 style mount; Maxton Re-Valved forks; Tokico 6 pot callipers; HEL braided hoses; TLR Swing-arm cut and re-welded to fit; Bitubo shock; Yellow Box speedo-healer; 98+ Thermo-mod; JarkkoT +/- mod; Airbox mod; K&N air filter; Riflemans 1/5th throttle insert; Harris carbon mudguard; Carbon Solo Seat Unit; Pyramid undertray; Powder coated wheels; Mini indicators; LSL rearsets; Scotoiler and possibly some other bit's I've forgotten :oops:

Nice one moose, seeing a TL makes me wanna go out and get another one straight away. Did you get theTLR clocks to work out ok on the wiring then? I keep thinking that I'll pop down one day for a gas but the usual gets in the way. Andy

Following my son's 2-stroke moped :D If you look closely, the only bit thats really black is the fuel tank - the rest is carbon fibre :D

Yes ..... sort of. The d'Ecosse tach-scaling gizmo does the job great, but I think there must be an issue with my soldering or the clocks as every so often the tacho just stops working and drops to zero :shock: There again it could just be the cr*p stock Suzuki wiring loom and all the rubbish crimped connectors inside it :roll:

Triumph Rocket III motor, and it looks like either a ZX12 or late Daytona seat unit :?


To answer your question in another thread, thankyou, I'm pleased with the way it's coming out :D The tank was a bargain at £45 from ebay - looks unused :shock:
