I actually got lucky and found a really nice complete back wheel, which I hope to put on today. New tire,tube and rim strip ready.I hope to get it back on wheels and do the kerker.Im still not sure I'm using the red bodywork because I purchased a set painted the original red from Z1 inc. Both sets are beautiful colors so its tough to decide.

Looks very nice, but then again I am partial to that year and make and color.  Can't wait for a road test review!  What don't you like about the rear shocks?  Looks like you did a great job on it.

I do like the shocks but they are in the way of the chain guard. I plan to make a custom guard for it .

Galfer will make brake lines with colored sleeves.  I used clear, but had them make my brake lines for my KZ750.
