winter project 75 kz400 was created by Cafekz400
Picked up this 75 in pieces but a very good start engine has been taken apart and cleaned. The frame has been painted also and started to be chopped.
Going to have a lot of questions as this goes on as I haven't owned one of these before. Have owned a 78 cb125s and a 75 cb350f so I'm not totally lost but those needed minimal work.

I have already posted about my forks but i am now wondering about the passenger foot peg supports i want to cut them off. Has anyone chopped these ? any tips would be great.

anyways heres some photos and thanks in advance.
