76 Kz900 Streetfighter Project was created by PLUS 900
Hello Kzrider, In 2011 I was introduced to the 1980 Kz1000 LTD and bought it. It was my first bike, I road bike's before but never owned a bike. My bother who has a 1976 Honda Goldwing showed me how to restore it.

Shortly after that I started watching Biker Build Off, Café Racer etc. and was amazed to learn you could take parts from another bike and make them custom fit, As a Former CNC Machinist and no stranger to tool's this was right up my alley and I was truly inspired to try a 1976 Kz900 custom streetfighter project in 2014. 90% of this project was done in my basement and is still on going. Why tell you, Because if I can in spire one Person to fall head over hill's for Kz bike's like my brother made me I have done my part to keep these bike's alive.

(Super Big Shout Out To Patton For Helping Me With An Electrical Problem (Patton My First Kz Brother You Roc) Hope You guy's Like It.

Thank You

No right now the cylinders and head are off, I'm in the process of having the cylinder sleeves bored for a 72mm piston kit.
