I hate posting photos here from my phone. Always rotates them some weird ass way. Gah.
Tail tidied and wiring harness routed.

Ordered the last parts hopefully, remote master cylinders are on the way. The oem 1125 units were comtacting the gauge cluster with the clip ons and fairing stay geometries. I went with a set of zx14 MC's. They should be a direct swap and a significant upgrade at 18mm.

A few quick mockups for a tank decals.
Updates. Upper fairing officially fitted and installed. Windscreen modified and refitted for better clearance. Needed a different throttle routing to be compatible with the MC's. R6 throttle didn't work out, so working on something else. Seat pad fitted, paint prep beginning while I wait for the necessary parts to button up the controls.
A few shots of the progress.
Nathan, nice job. That is the ONLY 1125 I've ever liked, well besides the one Eslick piloted at NJMP to Eriks first ever AMA championship. Nicely done, can't wait to see it finished
LOL I hate it when that happens.
Since I am a little late to replying, HOLY CRAP I can't believe you walked away basically injury free. If you are a cat, consider yourself down to 8 lives.
I am very happy that you are still with us.
Then
Looking at the work you have done so far,
WOW
it's coming along great. I can't wait to see it back on the road.

Motion pro makes a rev2 throttle for the RX, should work on the 1125
Thanks wicked. At this point I'm not sure if it can still even be called an 1125! Ha! Now that I think about it the only original.parts are the instrument cluster, motor assembly, cooling system, frame, swingarm, and rear wheel. That's equivalent or less than parts retained for the ronin project iirc.
Thanks Lusiphur. Believe me I'm just as surprised as you are, I can't wait to see it on the road either LOL!
ACE117, funny you mention that. I spoke with EBR's tech department the other day about that piece and they specifically told me it would not work. Which means it probably will lol. For my inentions anyway. I am awaiting an email response from Motion pro on the matter. For now I have an OEM 1190RX throttle headed my way for some "research" before I drop big bucks on a motion pro kit. They are pricey! $170 is too much to spend on an experiment.
