Do you mean the mark from the double bearing?  I believe they both have it.  I will take some pics today and maybe a better trained eye can pic out the diferences.

Here are some pics of the F2 and 77K cases for comparison.









My untrained eye sees no difference.  Can you make out any differences?

I was told something about the bottom end being stronger. Not sure what makes it stronger though.

DDM HID HI/LO kit to go with my Hella lens.....should work great



Next on the list
-Figure out a better way to mount the front fender then with hose clamps
-Fab up a new mount for the dash that lowers it a bit.
-I cam across a deal on Ohlins shocks and was thinking about them
-And over the summer I should be getting a Raid Titan tank and seat.  not sure if ill use it on this bike or my K1
-I hope to have the bottom end of the stroker motor together over the summer

Do you have the round/domed bucket, or the late F style with the big squared off portion on the bottom rear?

I say leave them black.

Looking good so far, man. Get it on the road!

I agree that the third color could be too much.
You have red, black, and chrome bits already.

Still slowly collecting parts.






VFR750 pistons
From what I understand these will work with my 900F crank and 1100 rods.

So now on the hunt for 1100 rods....
