CBR1000RR Front End?

[Cafe Project_imp]

I promise to post pics when the front end is fitted. I am waiting on one critical part (here on Tuesday). Should have something to show by next weekend. The little stuff seems to be going OK for far with the front end. There is so much aftermarket out there, that there aways seems to be a part that will solve the problem.

The rear end, rear sets and seat will be another story I am sure. Luckily, I have access to an industrial waterjet machine, and I am looking forward to making some cool parts out of exotic metals using that beast.

Thanks for the airbox info. Should get the Monster swingarm next week too, so I will know for sure how bad this is going to be.

Beardy - you removed the entire thing and ran open stacks right?

If I am reading this right, he wants to remove the rear portion- replacing it with a cone filter and leave the front part which should preserve impulse tuning. Not a bad idea as it would be hidden by the side covers anyway.

OP- post pics as you progress please.

Totally right. Just remove the rear part with the air filter in it and the air temp sensor. A K&N cone looks like it should fit on the front air box connector nicely. However, my plan was to relocate all of the connectors, fuses and relays to under the tank. Then move the (smaller) battery backward and make it part of the seat cowl. That would allow me to open up the side panels and show off the shock and filter.....
