Modified KZ1000 Hopefully a knee-dragger project.

Yes, I just took the cover off and I need 32" for the rear.

I meant ,is this your only bike to ride? what do u mean, a 32" for the rear. how is that posible? are u planing on runnig the rear cal from the front master?lol.
I have the same arm with a 24" line going under the arm.

No it's not my only ride. I appreciate your help. I'll just order a set, I think the rear may end up at 34 inches yikes.
I have fooled with that rotor but have decided to scrap it.

My cage on wheels.

NICE

That's funny Mark, Run it from the front...:laugh: Hey I could have "Linked Braking":woohoo: It is a long distance. because I'm not running rear sets.

Gearing update............
I bought one of those new "Super bike" front brake line kits from Galfer. It's the two line kit for running lines straight from the master cylinder , to the calipers.It's for an 07' Yamaha R1. The longer of the two lines is 30 inches. I used it on the rear. It turned out o.k. even without a 90' bend for the master cylinder.I put a hold down on it on the back of the swingarm tube.(you can't see it)
So now I have rear brakes and put the old rotor and pads on and went for a ride. I still don't have front brakes just yet.
Any way the gearing is rather low. I was in 5th gear putting around in the 'hood. Maybe I could do some side work as a stump puller. I goosed it once and spun the
ecentric adjuster on the left side. Too much torque and a heavy bike zipping across a freshly paved street. I will have to find the proper torque for the clamping bolts.:blush:
The gearing is 17/45 with a 530 chain.
Vortex offers a 41. Jt has a 42. I will try the aluminum Vortex 41 tooth and if that is not "high" enough I will put an 18 or 19 on the front. I have a feeling that I will have to change the front anyway.

Can you tell that I lowered it? I guess I was too close to tell.

looking good!

Larrys' new V-Max has gone off to motorcycle heaven.!!! Some broad squished him and his bike into the back of a car. His o.k. .. Trying to get paid I think. I didn't even get to ride it.:lol: :lol:

On a 630 1 tooth at the front = about 2.5 teeth at the back. u may want to find out what speed it cruises at on the highway before u order a sprocket. u can do some math, or look it up on a chart, to find how many teeth to change, to get where u want.

I will have to calibrate my Vapor and see what my speed is. there is a screen I have to toggle to and input a value after I use an equasion they have given me in my manual.

Damn that must feel weird to have happen while riding it.

Coming right along, looks good.

What part of the cush drive did you machine, the sprocket face or the inside where the rubbers are? I have always wondered this. Thanks
