nossliw 08-10-2009, 05:24 PM Well I have never fit up an entire CF bodywork and was wondering if any of you had any tips on how to do so.... Guessing to start with the upper and move down to the lower, wondering which dzus fasteners would work best as well..... I only want to drill once and do not want to screw it up so any verbal help would be nice. The tail should be fairly easy....
few pics of the goods....:flex:
speedfreek 08-10-2009, 08:56 PM if you need help bro i just got laid off so plenty of free time! Also me and Krystle are launching our own new online sportbike magazine and are looking for a feature bike for September's issue, I think a nice R1 with CF would be nice dont ya think? Let me know

Hell yeah, but if I can get one of my bikes in there its going to be a CF R6... thats what I bought the kit for, I'm going to have to find a half nekked hottie for pics and I have a friend who is a pro at HDR / professional sphotography. I'll keep you in mind when it gets in and give you a ringer if I get stuck.
speedfreek 08-11-2009, 11:55 AM LOL! I think we can find a hottie! lol...i can get the bike shot, hell we live in colorado, have you seen all the beautiful scenery? Hit me up if ya need some help!

Will do and I'd like to actually follow through on this idea....CF should be here in a week, cost 200$ to ship it...... I do not understand that!
th1nm1nt 08-11-2009, 10:48 PM David that I brought up to HPR used to work at Morse, and did that mold to mount. Call me when you are ready, he is in my basement.

Well if I got some beer would you guys be up for a ride to my little shanty shack garage and maybe chill for a bit and give me a hand?

For sure man...let me know when you are trying to do it, and we're there man. He heads to Nebraska here soon for some kite boarding, but we got time now.
nossliw 08-13-2009, 12:37 AM should be in here pretty soon maybe by the beginning of next week....
punisher28 08-13-2009, 12:40 AM thats going to look clean when you get it all done....wish I had some advice to give you
th1nm1nt 08-13-2009, 09:19 AM should be in here pretty soon maybe by the beginning of next week....
Its an 85% chance I'll be up north Monday to hit up HPR again...there's an idea (though need to clue David in before I pimp his time out). I'm sure he'd help since we'll pick your brain non-stop next year when we have our number plates! :)

Well I'm headin to PMI sunday not sure about monday.... first day of the semester:dundun: I swore chicane was doing HPR on Sunday but I guess I was wrong, either way when the body work shows up I'm gonna need a bit of advise, those number plates better be showing up here soon for those bikes... it would be tits to have you guys out there!.... and the ladies you bring!:drunk:
nossliw 08-15-2009, 09:03 PM Well I'm sorta pissed, got the upper and tail in tonight and the tail was rubbing in the crushed box and blemished the carbon.... I called pete at fitz graphics and he told me to give Forecla G3 or G5 a shot and if that does not work out, I'm going to have it all reshot with clear..... I'm F'ing livid now after spending the money and usps JACKING UP A BOX THAT WEIGHS 3 POUNDS but cost 90 bucks to ship, so fitup won't be for a while, unless you guys want to cruise up on Tues or thurs night of next week.....
Dammit!
nossliw 08-18-2009, 12:31 PM All of the CF is in... the rest looks excellent.... going to start fooling around with it tonight after I get my bike back, buddy compound fractured his arm at the track had his upper forearm and whatever the bone that goes from your shoulder to you elbow popping out of his suit... pretty brutal gets out of his 3rd or fourth 4th tonight, and I 'll be able to get the keys to his toy hauler and start working on this biatch.
Any suggestion of where to get some good dzus fasteners locally? Figured we could get a fitup and then zip tie till I get them installed.....
Chris you up for it?
th1nm1nt 08-30-2009, 10:17 AM Any suggestion of where to get some good dzus fasteners locally?
I haven't been online in a while...when you come down Tuesday, remind me. I have two full sets in my garage.
BOOM BABY!
nossliw 08-30-2009, 09:23 PM Thanks man I appreciate it...however Tuesday won't work anymore..... I had a nasty high speed high side and have some cracked ribs and pelvis, and waiting for the test to come in to see if my spleen ruptured, so it will be a while before I actually can get it on the trailer, I might try to get it down there this weekend if I get a hand from one of my room mate.
I appreciate it chris I'll try to call tomorrow!
nossliw 09-06-2009, 11:42 PM dude keep me updated with pics and all that good stuff...I'm stoked!
th1nm1nt 09-07-2009, 10:59 AM dude keep me updated with pics and all that good stuff...I'm stoked!
I will, since David won't be back til tonight, I spent 15 hours cleaning the garage so we can do it and not scratch that beautiful carbon fiber. My toybox can now fit 8 bikes, not just 4.

roadracer85 09-28-2009, 04:12 AM hi mate, Just a quick question? why did you get the top fairing in plain 3k weave and the bellypan in 2x2 twill?
th1nm1nt 09-28-2009, 10:35 AM hi mate, Just a quick question? why did you get the top fairing in plain 3k weave and the bellypan in 2x2 twill?
OMG...was I the only one that didn't notice this???
I owe you a couple strippers or something.....
No worries man...anytime we can help (though I won't ever turn down strippers as payment)
nossliw 09-28-2009, 06:30 PM OMG...was I the only one that didn't notice this???

No I noticed it right away:crash Set came like that I did not have a choice....bought it from a fellow racer
Good stripper party at your place?
th1nm1nt 09-30-2009, 08:17 AM Nick...you removed the post about a stripper party. My answer is of course I offer the house. I havce a down ass wife/best friend, you just need to bring the women that keep the mix 3:1, and don't require a lot of drinking for them to shed the clothes. Actually, check your shirt/bra at the door. Pick a date man!
nossliw 09-30-2009, 12:45 PM hunh... I didn't remove that wonder if it was a mod....

Its looking questionable today if I can go. Dawn had $3K in emergency dental work yesterday, along with my daughter going to homecoming. Its been an expensive weekend for me, and that was just Saturday!
I still have the fundage, but have to go over bills when the lady gets up.
nossliw 10-10-2009, 12:25 PM u missed a good time sukka
