I was just looking around the gallery and on every page I went to there was a different Super F not including my own bikes.
One Japanese bike.
There was only a few of these modified bikes when I found this site two and a half years ago and now it seems like everyone is doing it. {Well, not everyone} This is only 9 of them but there are a lot more of them if I took the time to look for them.
Anyways, I just wanted to tell you all that have modified your bikes that the ones I see here are all looking bitchin and I hope to see bikes added to this that I did not see when I was in the gallery.
You all rock.
And to those of you with the stockers, they that I saw were looking good too. Keep the torch burning with your Super Sports, they rule. |

I cant wait to start modifying my F. I am mainly waiting to free up the cash. I am taking a second job to start a F'ing savings account. I get so stoked about the modifications that I dont know what way I want to go first. I really would like to make this bike handle better. I love the way it runs so far. BUT I know it is capable of so much more. After riding my friends 01 GSXR 750 and falling in love with the brakes and handling, I want to make my bike handle and brake better. I know this motor is capable of horsepower. But horsepower is only a part of the story.
My house has a spare kitchen in the basement from where it used to be a duplex. I am planning on stripping out that room and making it a work area. I am going to install a double door to allow easy access to the room. I have plans to caniblize some old machines at work to make a lift table.
I have been doing MASSIVE research on this site and others. I think I am leaning towards a mono shock rear end and an updated set of forks. These will be accompanied by updated brakes and rearsets.
Cooters Ride
I like the way cooters bike looks. It is lean and mean. I have been eyeing ebay for parts and am starting to get close to planning my attack!! Until someone else posts a mod and I go"Oh yeah, I want that!!!!" |

I also happen to know another member here with a Super F worthy of this amazingly fine group. And if I may be so bold as to out him here, he may get over his shyness and post a pic publicly.
Midnight has built an amazing bike that looks as if it could have rolled straight off the production line. Clean and sweet. F'n (as in Super F that is... ) Amayzing!!
My hats off to you buddy!!

All the bikes pictured I have seen, except this one.
That paint job is outstanding! Actually, the whole friggen F!
Does it belong to a member, or is it from Japan? |

Looks overseas to me. I thought the orange-accented bike was an eye-catcher.
Spider, red is prettier, at least (knowing any oy yours would smoke my multi-colored 900). Budd. |

Yeah, all it's missin is some #19 plates. Look at the exhaust, how far the collector is. It must have locomotive top end power. For some reason here in the States we stall when it comes to fabricating our own exhaust, so it must be from Japan. |

I am not into those smaller tires/wheels. Looks weird in my view. I like the stock wheel size. Perhaps I woud widen the com stars.
I do not like the big space in the rear, looks more like a cross bike in some extreme ones.
The smaller front one does not look that bad, but the rear one looks terrible. |

If you ride one with the wheel mod, you might change your mind. The improvement is a beautiful thing.  |

Is the color on 750F on the bike that is 5th from the very bottom in this thread an OEM color? If so, can someone tell me the color code so I can get it? I am sure that ColorRite can duplicate it for me. If it is OEM, what year is it? It looks more gray than the silver that was available back in the day, I think it looks incredible!
I would really appreciate it if someone could pass this information along.
Thanks for any information that could be sent my direction. |

That bike belongs to CB900RR and the tank is a replica R tank and not from the 919. An awful lot of work went into that bike and the results are absolutely beautiful.  |

Thanks for the info! My bad on assuming it was a 919 tank, I guess a lot of sportbikes have that same general tank shape.
I'd really like to know what he had to do to make the tank fit. I think that is an awesome mod!
The rest of the bike is sweet too! |
