Got a Zx6rr in the shop!!

I went to the local bike night and busted out a few tricks on the f4i, met some riders who want parts on their bikes. One guy has a brand spankin new zx6rr that he is letting me use for a week to take measurements, in return, he is leaving with all the billet parts I design for it bolted up for free. Time to get out the calipers and hit the computer screen for some design work. Here is my list

Street pegs
Stunt pegs
Spools
Mirror eliminators
License plate braket
frame sliders
Bar ends

Its a grip of stuff to make in a week, no sleep and no riding for me. The zx6 is so lightwieght its crazy! Make my f4i feel like a tank.

Any body riding one of these?

The guy that brought it to me said it is 75 pounds lighter than his old 2004 f4i

I like to stick to billet parts mostly, I do some tig welding for my chromoly handlebars and 12 bars for the 50, but don't want to get into it more than that really.
