New member lacomoto build

Post by Gniwog »

Hi guys/girls

Just joined up and currently building a lacomoto m1 replica on a 5vy. So the mods list is currently this

Full lacomoto m1 replica fairing with full carbon pack

Loads of custom bodywork including flushed indicators, custom rear camera, headlight covers etc

Race technology dash 2 with custom carbon brackets and loom

Custom exhaust by racefit with very special end can

Rearsets

Clipons

Remove all switchgear and replace with race style buttons

Still to buy/work out??

Ohlins rear shock

Possible ohlins forks/conversion if possible?

Brembo rcs brake/clutch

Brembo gp4 callipers

Pfm sports discs

520 chain sprockets

Dry break brake lines

Front fork linear potentiometer

There's loads of other things to do also and I think I'm looking at 6 months to get it finished. The end goal is the closest m1 replica I can make.

I will have all the original 5vy parts for sale removed from a clean 1 owner bike and also looking to buy any of the parts I still need but cannot post in the sale threads yet, I will put these in once I can.

Welcome in Simon
Sounds like a hell of a project , what's the chances of you starting a thread in the projects section so we can follow your progress ?
So what other bikes you had and how long you been riding ?
