You may recall some early pictures of my project from the other site - I've done some more work:

Essentially a dummy assembly before stripping it down for powdercoating and plating etc...

R6 front caliper and master cylinder, biting on one ΓΈ300mm disc. I run something very similar on my TDR, and it's very good...

I would go for twin discs up front, one caliper now matter what it is is not gonna be as good as two.
Rear tyre could be fatter, just looks real skinny
you might want to try modding an rgv vj22 tank to fit, its a much nicer shape and aint to hard to fit.
are you gonna fill in the big gap between the seat and tank? looks a bit shoddy as if its just bitsa bodywork that you've thrown on.
didnt it have a chrome tank at one point?

all sound a bit negative but its not meant to, i know how much trouble it is to get stuff from other bikes to fit.

not sure if they bolt straight on, or R6 ones.

Comments apreciated...!

I run the Mito wheels on my TDR250, with BT090's (110 fr and 150 r); they're all the tyre I'll ever need. However, if I can find a set of post '97 RS250 wheels, they'll go straight on.

The seat/tank junction has caused many hours of frustration, cardboard shapes etc trying to find a solution. It took alot of positioning to get the line of the top of seat to follow the tank. I am currently designing an airbox that will fit the gap...

It did have a grey primer tank previously, but that was full of filler and dents, so got the one above off The Flute...
