just the suspension (99gsxr forks/zx7 rim/gpz 'arm/zx9 shock/gs500 rear wheel) the motor is still stock.... for now.
it MIGHT make 40-45 hp on a good day. and that frame sucks... you can feel it flexing underneith you in corners.
hp ain't everything.. i just don't slow down....lol

Anyhoo, I'm 31 - started Octane Publishing 3 years ago to publish Octane Magazine as well as produce catalogs, business cards, websites, and other print and promotional products for various companies. Best part of my job? Road testing bikes and cars and getting to drive other guy's rides.
I ride a '93 Suzuki GS500 that I've owned for ten years and made considerable modifications to in that time (Gixxer suspension front and rear with upgraded brakes, tires, etc. - CBR rearsets, GP shift, carbon solo seat, custom paint, mild work/tuning to stock motor). I also have a 1970 Hodaka Ace100 dual purpose bike I'm almost done restoring and I'll soon be joining Skr00zloose on the old iron with my new project - a 1980 Yami XS11 Standard that's getting a Hayabusa front end, swingarm, wheels, brakes, and monoshock conversion, and will be powered by a 138hp Yamaha FZ1S motor. Still a ways off from finishing the Yami, but it's going to be badass!
