    Hello all.

    I am a newb here so nice to meat you all.

    I'm a guy from Greece and I recently bought
    myself a Daytona 600 which was a dream of mine.

    After a few months of riding it
    I got disapointed with the breaking/suspension so I decided
    to convert the front end to an Upside down system
    that supports radial calipers.

    I looked all over the internet for some pics but couldn't find any.
    That is why imma post a couple on here for anyone thats interested
    in doing the same thing to see.
    Front end is off a 2006 YZF - R1
    and the calipers are off a 2009 GSXR1000

    Note:
    The bike is a whole other world now.
    Handles even better and breaking is amazing.
    I feel more confident in the twisties and generaly throwing the bike
    at anything with ease.

    Sorry for any Grammar mistakes.
    I'm a self tought fellah.

    I just got it a month ago so
    I have just started modifying it.
    Good thing is I got it for only 1.7K Euro
    and it had a Brembo RCS19 master cylinder installed on it.

    Theres more to come like a carbon Arrow exhaust
    a rear tail light with integratted signals aswell as
    smaller LSL front turn signals..

    Maybe even paint the whole suit and putting on the new modern OEM "Triumph Daytona" decals.

    Hello Jura, that bike for 1 700€ !!!!! You did really well there.

    Are prices much lower in Greece than the rest of Europe? I'm in France and here your bike would be roughly 3 500€.

    No man, It's a bargain here.
    The 600's usual price is around 3K.
