Project 990R

[Roxtar]

So not a rebuild as such but bought this rather tatty 2011 990R from a friend a while ago with around 56,000km on odo.... The bike is complete but requires lots of TLC and some new parts. Having a 990 Adv on the other side of the garage being my daily I decided to park up the R this year and fix her up to a more desirable level....

I have ordered quite a few parts from KTM, ORC, Podium and RaceWorx and will tackle it as we go along. Decided to just lift the bars for some paint on Saturday and ended up here.....

In short the story will go as follows somewhat:
- Revamp front end totally with new bearings, fresh paint, grips etc
- Rebuild front forks at ORC
- New sticker kit from Bandit (will be copy of original)
- New wheels & tyres
- New rear end and taillight as previous owner cut the original fender to shreds
- New indicators
- Removed LR tanks as these were plumbed incorrectly and badly painted
- Deep clean everything.....
- Do valves at ORC at some point
- New quick connector for tank... the piece of gas piping hanging off the bike is how it came....
- Rebuild both masters via Kelly007.... he is the MAN for this job
- New screen
- O2 elimination kit
Already has fitted:
- Side stand relocation bracket
- Crash bars
- Pannier racks
- Side stand elimination switch
- Adventure Overtime tanks

Any other suggestions will be welcome fellows
