Hey, I recognise that top clamp. It made a brief stop at my place on the way to Florida. I'm glad that you can use it on your bike. Sweet project! You're making me want a GPZ.

As far as next ive got about 3 things mulling around at once.I think ive got the rear set mount figured out just need to get the material.hard to get to metal shop, working all the time.also looking at headlight mt and guages.considering a acewell digital.looking at making a bracket out of 3/8 brake line tubing and just bending it to shape with some tabs for mounting?then have it powdercoated.not going to mt a fairing so trying to tuck it all tight.oh yea and making a new steering stop for frame to also mt stabilizer to.testarossa thanks for sending part so quick.you couldnt use it?anybody got a good set of 34 flatslides?

camaroguy the triple rocks. The frontend is looking nice.What are you doing for a headlight or are you gonna just mount a # plate?
Oh yea those Chevys look verrrrry interesting. Howabout pics of those bud ?
Again keep up the nice work

Yea Mark, I couldn't use it. The spacing and offset were wrong for my 95 GSXR front end. I have to stick with my original setup to retain the cable driven speedo. I just bent up some headlight tabs to fit the larger tubes out of 16ga. Check them out in my thread, you might get some ideas. kzrider.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&...it=20&limitstart=520

Just got tripple and riser in mail yesterday. thanks ben{aka]irishwill. first time i have ever bought a custom part and it just bolt on. nice piece of machining.riding position is just right.here are a couple pics.

glad it worked out for you bud

I never tried them on a gpz... is the steering radius affected alot...
it looks like it might not be as reduced as it is on a z1

radius dosent seem to bab.looks like the stock steering stop on frame just needs to be extended to make contact with stops on loer tripple.farted around a little with headlight/ guage mts.probably will convert to solid round bar. heres one of the camaro before completion

Been awhile since Ive made any progress. had off a few days so I was able to work on the bike without the wife needing me to go somewhere.got my rearsets tacked on as well as my headlight /guage mount.Ill have a buddy weld it up pretty with a tig when everything is ready.made the headlight bracket out of 3/16 solid round bar and bent it to shape.I welded that to some 3/8 in.cromymoly tube bored to fit the bolts on the front end.I guess the next thing will be to figure out wiring and get this bad boy running.

I like it! Are you still fishing for some 34 flatslides? Looks like you need carbs, wiring and to tie up loose ends. You might be on the road this season!

Thanks, yea I am still looking for a set of 34s. I think a member of the forum is just about ready to part with his.I guess theres no rush to finish but, seeing daylight at end of tunnel.still have to tear it all apart to paint and finish when done.

Nice work! I've always loved gpz 11's!! I like where you're goin' with this!

Nicejob. She's looking great.

Very small update. finished headlight and tail light mounts. for rear I took a piece of aluminum and bent it to shape lets the light tuck in under the tail but yet stick out just far enough to see from the side.also provides a small tab for signals and plate.in front I made some threaded round stock to mount switch to and made a couple pices of sheet metal cut to shape to mount headlight to.Im trying to keep everything tucked in as tight as possible but theres alot to try and cram in there?heres a couple pics. oh yea got a very nice set of 34 flat slides from a member. thanks Mike.1 more
