Funny you mention that, I spent ages looking for a z1000 tank and the prices were eye watering, so I went with what I had.

I would prefer a squarer tank, but I think as it is, the lines from different angles flow well enough for me. Different shades on the paint highlight the angles too, but it's such a small issue that I'm happy to live with it :)

Front end in soon! Stay tuned.

Still to do is:

Wire up the tacho
Install new rear shocks
Sort out a minor tank venting issue
modify the front fairing some
re-bleed the rear brakes
install bobbins for paddock stand
more klms and final tune after 1000 klms.

I'm more than happy with the outcome!

Hi all,

So the bike is finished, bar a few more minor things and post shakedown tweaks.

Here's a write up of it on Pipeburn.com. Nice photos too!

Cheers for all the help during the build.
