anybody building a rigid KZ?
07 Feb 2007 13:11
I am picking up a turbo KZ1000 that I won on e-bay the other day---I am thinking about putting a drop seat rigid tail section on it. Would love to see some rigid frame KZ pics---or opinions---thanks

Here's one.....and yes, it does try to crawl out from under you on boost. I realized that while sitting on it with the bike straight up!

Yep! But if you're like me, after seeing you lived through it, it will take a while to wipe the smile off your face!
