Hi guys! I’ve always been in love with the shape and presence of this bike. I’ve been riding a great Yamaha fz6 set for touring for the past 4 year and picked up a rough looking 2003 919 in great mechanical shape plus a huge box of “spares” (last owner hoarded parts for 16 years).

The reed valve delete was already made, Im changing the lights to led, reupholstering the seat, installing crash bars/cage and changing the handlebar for a Renthal bar.
Other mods I’m saving for the near future are braided steel brake cables, polishing the headers and paint… it’s a very faded black with chips everywhere…

Hi! it has 22.300 miles, we do KM in Canada, so 36.000Km.

I'll be doing some work on it today. Do you guys want updates?

 

[rufftup]

Hi! I did the seat cover already, also included a heating pad to get it on the road as soon as the weather permits

I love that she’s still in the kitchen.

Sure sign of a bachelor, eh?

Haha! Definitely. Washing parts in the kitchen sink yet?
