It is great to see your progress. I love the paint on the frame.

where ya been hiding at?

I guess time has fogged my memory, I could swear the cases looked more damaged than that when I first saw them Mark.
Maybe it was because when I initially saw the damage it was not long after you had gotten your bike back home, and I remember the frame rail being "imbedded" into the cases.


Duane,

Good to see you around KZr again bud!

Thanks and nice to hear from you Duane.

Yes Chris The smashed frame made it look worse. I had to cut the bike in half to get it out. I never saw the rear lower mount cracked before.

Mark,

I am certain that bike will belong on the 2008 KZrider Calendar. I am determined to see it in person.

Are you physically able to do any serious riding yet? I expect you will be polishing the metal bits in your forearms too!

Thanks, Being in the calendar would be COOL.

I think I'll be OK riding, being a collision repair tech should have toughened up enough.

I had the metal taken out of my wrist about a year and a half ago. My wrist works better with out it too. I asked for the hardware but I never got it. I wanted to make something out of it, oh well.


I wanted to run superbike bars, I found some KZ bar risers and cut the lugs off the bottoms they went into the bar depressions. I also shined up the sprocket drive. I may have a polishing problem.

OPPS!

Well I put the engina in the frame last night. It was stripped down to just the block so I had no problem doing it by myself. I put a floor jack under the middle and rapped the frame with some bubble rap and got it in without scratching any thing. Should be looking like a motorcycle in no time.

show off! looking good!

When I got home from the West Coast Ride while my bike was still in the truck I checked the pipe repair and fit. The old race pipe just clears the mono-shock. I also won a street legal Yosh pipe and I can use it too. I like how it looks better than the race pipe.
