Seeing yours makes me want to finish mine 🤦‍♂️. It has been sitting for several years now, bought it new in 97.
Have to agree with @!!A2K!!, unless you are doing some major modifications, a wheelie bar would be for looks, and the hydro clutch on that thing does not like hard launches either lol.
NIce bike tho, a few more pics would be cool🤙
 
Leave it alone. Get a Busa or Zx14 or H2 instead.

If you get swing arm extensions have them welded in. Not sure if anyone makes arms for these anymore and if they do they will be a little salty. Get a 520 conversion while your at it and change the gearing for accel thing should run alright!

Already switched the gears out won't even think about extensions for swing arm they never work but if In can find extended swing arm will put on it. Already lowered bike just gotta get dog bone for rear. Big thing now is the bars and will be ready for the strip.
