Early SS Bodywork onto 2005 Bike ?
 
Just a thought, would the early SS bodywork fit onto a 2005 bike ? I was assuming it would as I've got an early tank on my later race bike.
I prefer the look of the early 600/750/900SS but like the later 1000 chassis and motor :)

Just do it - plenty of cheap bodywork to be had and you could always try Ricambi-Weiss although the ssie stuff I bought from them was crap. Dom Clegg bought some pattern old-style SS bodywork from someone - he's happy with it. PM him.

Definately want to do it, we were going to buy another 600 which would mean I can rob that of all the road fairings etc so it's just a case of finding a clean 1000 for sensible money :)

Missed one on ebay the other day - it went for £2850!!!! RU gonna race one in Thunderbikes?

twpd 04-Mar-2006 23:36

I've been looking for one tonight on Biketrader. £4500 is the cheapest I found so far.

I hope you can do it...but TWPD is right try for Ricambi-Weiss...could could buy a couple of sets to try to get it right...

I would love to see the final result...good luck...

I think you might have to do a bit of work; the headlight mounting bracket is quite a bit different, with the mirror mounts further back on the injection bikes

How about this? This is where I think am going with my 800ss racer:



I like the semi-faired look and it should have the benefit of improved cooling for the tweaked motor.

I also like very much that semi fairing (ricambi-weiss seems to have those for sale) but I'm not sure about the better cooling because the original fairings have funnels directing cool air to the rear cylinder.

nige that's real nice :)

I do however love the look of the superlight900, so much if I can find a Sl at the right price in mint condiion I may buy that instead !
