Sounds freakin' amazing!

Brake fluids can get really confusing. Dot 3 and Dot 4 are compatible but Dot 5 is not. Now, Dot 5.1 is compatible with Dot 3 and Dot 4, but not with Dot 5. Who comes up with this stuff??

Thank you.

Glad you guys like it. Test ride is coming soon.

DOT 4 is just a better DOT 3. TThey can be used completely interchangeably with each other. Valvoline only sells DOT 4 now and the label says "DOT 3 & 4" . DOT 4 is more heat resistant and less prone to absorbing moisture. Go with DOT 4 and stick with it.


DOT 5 is synthetic and can cause problems with seals and brake lines depending on construction and configuration, A complete overhaul and upgrade would be in order to use DOT 5.

WELL FREAKING DONE..... She sounds beautimuss!


Let me know when you're ready for a ride up the hill (Payson) or wherever for that matter....

That's exactly what I use! Seems like really good stuff. I got mine at autozone.

Thanks OMR! I want to do a few short runs around the house to make sure everything works right.

When you guys get together, can you see about taking some action video of the bikes cruising together. Maybe have a friend with a chase bike taking video of the two of you. Two unique killer KZzzzz's side-by-side!!! Would make a great video.

Better yet... Wife just got me a Go-Pro video with mounting hardware for the KZ... Oh yeah!

Looking forward to seeing this beast up close, beautifully done...LUV it.
And that pipe, I must hear, smell that exhaust... lol!

Only a matter of time now....
