The bike does look different. I'm normally not a huge fan of the dual headlight but yours looks great somehow.And the tail lights.
I know it has been a trying time getting it legal and all and I hope that is resolved successfully for you and you are released from that stress.

Man, the thing is comin' along!
Hey do you have any close ups of the left side of the motor? I'd like to see what the custom machines pieces look like. Specifically the PMFR stuff. What is your impression of the quality and the "bolt on" ability?

Thanks, and it really is lookin' good!

these kits are CAD designed with strength and lightness in mind . Made from 6061 - T651 plate , these units take the place of your stock sprocket cover , making changing the sprocket much easier . It's also easier to adjust the clutch and you save some weight as a bonus . It also allows the use of an offset sprocket , which is not possible with the stock cover . Shipped complete with all bolts and spacers required , just unbolt your old actuator and transfer it to your new part . The Kawasaki J, GPZ kit requires you to supply an actuator from a Kawasaki Z1 or KZ , all others use the stock actuator.(note clutch push rod needs to be cut down)
