I am thinking of running my CLT connected to my oil cooler to catch an oil temp before the cooler.

Is this thing still on? What's up fellas... I know its been awhile, but we all know how these project and life can be!! The bike has been sitting for a few months while I worked on other things, but I finally got back to it and am trying to get it wrapped up. I just wrote up my punch list of all the things I need to finish, and its not to bad. Still need to get a few things machined, but nothing to major.

Anyway, just wanted to drop in and say hey, and let you know the beast lives and will hopefully be finished soon!!

A punch list? lol, I like the name. I had to do the same thing but I did it in Microsoft project.. Get at it man, that's the only way the list shrinks.

Ok, decision time. Need to make a decision on the headlight. I think im gonna either stick with a 6" round or do something completely different. So tell me what you think..

Either this exact setup...



Or this one..



Let the voting begin.

Option one. I went this way so I could put a little flyscreen over the light. Nothing much, but just enough to break the wind and look bad ass at the same time. Just my .02

I think I agree with you guys, the more I look at it the more I think it needs to be round.

Anybody have any updates on this project or Boostable? I am loving what he is doing especially the rear swingarm work which I am getting ready to do myself. I am getting a similar swingarm off of a 2005-6 GSXR 600 and want to know where he got those bushings. Are you out there yet Boost?

Hello Boostable. Any updates? Looking forward to the finished bike.

your KZ1000 conversion is being featured in the BikeBuilds.net
directory here: Boostable's KZ1000 to Fighter build

We’re currently displaying only a reduced-size photo (similar to what you’d find in Google
Images). We'd like to ask for your permission to publish the original full-size image with your
build listing.

If anyone would like to have a build of their own listed, just send me a message with a link to
the build thread and we’ll take care of the rest.

Al
Bike scribe. Preserving bike builds for posterity.
