Complete Bike Rebuild

SO I started the summer with a 1982 Kawasaki KZ250 CSR. A belt drive model my uncle gave me since I'm going to college and bikes are usually easier and cheaper to get around on. However I ran into a few issues that I solved here, and still have a few more to work on. (Hence the project category). The belt was broken and I didnt have another one so I converted it to a chain drive using a KZ 305 wheel and KX sprocket. Also the 530 chain was nice instead of the 520. I completely rebuild the carbs, front forks, seat, handlebar assemblies, changed the handlebars, and go almost all of it done in just the last few months. Got some body work and custom paneling made out of steel rather than the cheaper plastic. Now I'm realizing that after changing the handlebars I'm in need of shortening the cables. I'll post pics soon.

Well I did it finally. Got her all pieced together. custom panels, got the tank painted, seat reupholstered, all the brakes, tires, oil, and electrical systems updated, changed, or refreshed. She looks great, rides awesome, although I feel that my final product is far from finished. I'll load some pics:

Looking good. Love the paint. Nice job there

I see a bigger bike in the future.

Great Work!!! Nice to see some of the smaller bikes getting some TLC.
