Talking Gday from Sydney

Gents,

Bought myself a completely stock 2007 orangey colored Honda 919 (or Hornet). In the process of put on some bits and pieces, most recent mod is a pair of slip on Yoshi TRS tri oval exhaust which were pretty cool.

Have a whole bunch of other things I'm going to do to it so I'll post pics soon as I can, look forward to chatting.

You'd need to replace the perch for the brake lever, and the master cylinder to boot.

I put a GSXR master cylinder on mine, matched to RC51 calipers. I have an ugly res on there right now, but this Rizoma one has caught my eye a time or two:

Thanks for the heads up about the perch and master cylinder, I have been looking at the Rizoma REs myself but have heard they have a tendancy to leak.

Me want. I'll trade engines. I'll do all the labor, you just need to ferry it over the ocean.

Also, welcome!
