I know it gets complicated & expensive but I've been looking for a dropped triple tree for a mid 90's gsxr usd front end. Thanks, Scott

Mark,

How hard would it be to get permission to use the KZR logo, I am betting they would sell out.

The "slant" makes it more expensive. Is this a casting?

It's all possible.

i would work out a licensing agreement with DYNA and sell directly to/through them. with their LOGO
after I sent all my buds on KZR one

I would buy one that said KZR as well but business wise I think Dyna may have a larger market, although Z1E should step up another good logo I'd display

Agggrrghhhh.

Pretty much over wanting to burn the bike to the ground now. I visited it in the foster home the other day (it is in protective custody).

Next battle.. Lighting. Easy stuff. Track days start soon, then it is shakedown time.

Jetting:

Ok so so far no Dyno run.

Next question. The bike is really lean, the carbs are the stock 29MM round slides.

The bike has been bored to 998cc, has K&N Filters, and a Kerker header, Dyna ignition.

This has got to be a common set-up, so do any of you have a baseline jetting recipe I can copy?

The kicker is I live at 4500 foot elevation, but don't think that is going to make a huge differnce.
