It was really a fantastic day. Its the first time the KZ has been out in public, and there were so many compliments, and a few really good constructive suggestions. I am very happy I went.

There were a few guys that really liked the bike, Mike, Tim and Anthony. Plus the steampunk bike builder whose name I cannot recall.

I won an award, so does that make me a bone-ified bike builder now?

This is awesome great work!

Can you tell the length of those front forks centre of axle to top of shock un sprung

I'll say it again damn that's nice

On page 11 of this thread you will find the image above. The length if you had them laying on the bench would be a little longer. These are Gsxr 1100 forks, the last year of conventional forks. I think they are 1989 or 90. The cool thing is that you will find the same forks on the newer Bandit, so parts are easy and plentiful.

Thanks so much for the compliments.
