Hi from Holland
29 Oct 2012 19:42 - 29 Oct 2012 19:43
Hi everybody,
My name is Rob and I'm from Scheveningen (the Hague)the Netherlands and I simply love KZ's.
I own a KZ1000a1 which used to be a U.S. police bike.
I am a professional house painter, run my own business and I'm married. I got two boys of 12 and 14. They both make music, piano and guitar and both are practicing Tae Kwon Do black belt. I'm the bass player in a rock &roll band and I like to make some noise on my bass or with my bike :evil:
Bike spec's:
KZ1000A1 frame 1977 (modified rake)
KZ1000J1 motor 1981
CBR SC28 front forks/wheel/caliper/disc 1992
GSX1100EF swing arm/wheel/caliper/disc 1986
Diversion XJ600 foot rests 1993
Marving 4-1 without silencer
Dyna ignition/coils
Dyno jetted carbs
K&N clean air filters
Tomasseli handle bar
Custom cable tree
Soon to be done:
Honda or Suzuki swing arm
Rear wheel (to meet the front wheel)
Seat (Café race)
Gel battery small size
Clip-ons
Hydraulic clutch
Brembo front break an clutch master cilinder
Paint job
A lot of work but it's gonna be fun to do
Cheers

i see that you have a j model engine.
does that mean that someone added the tailpiece and side covers?
because i have never seen a j-engined bike that came with the kz style tail and side panels.
got some pics of the rear of the frame with the the tail and seat off?

Sorry, got no pic's of the frame without tail piece and because of the weather the bike is in hybernation, but it is a KZ-A1 frame with a J motor. That's why
