great job bro! enjoy it, you certainly put the hours in you deserve it....

yes sir pretty fly for an old guy

Looks and sounds sweeeet. It sure is a cool feeling taking the first ride on a project bike. Now get the tags on her and go for a real ride.

i went through that 45 minute traffic jam on the interstate to come home and see a 5 second video? i was expecting a 10 minute video atleast!by the way you still suck,but your bike rocks! B)ya done pretty good for an older guy!

What! No burn out
Way cool Dave.
Do u think that the Acewell could be fit into the stock kz speedo cover and mounted in the stock location?

I find that and my speedo is reading out of wack with the 17 inch rim. How does it pick up the speed signal?

Most probably for it is a small profile. PM me if you need exact measurements...

I like that and my speedo is reading out of wack with the 17 inch rim. How does it pick up the speed signal?

It uses a Hall effect sensing for pick up of a magnet on the front rotor. I don't have this dialed in yet (need to ride her on the highway and compare to other vehicle mph) for speed accuracies but in programming, you just insert the circumference of your wheel and that's about it...

sweet.......that helmet looks almost invisable where did you find it..........i know your a handsome guy.....but hey could we see a little more of the bike maybe next time..........you set a high mark for builds....and i would love to see how you really feel about the mods you've done as you ride it A LOT.....that speedo is the bomb...if you get it dialed in and it performs good for street use i want to do one on my 1000j......so many nice finished products there it is hard to compliment just one.....nice bike!!!!!!!!!!!peace craig

one more thing....is that seat gonna be long enough.......to give plummen and kawasakman a ride at the same time....did you put two set of passenger pegs.....are you gonna flip a coin to see who gets to sit next to you???????????

we flipped a coin,you get to take omr for a ride 1st !

it would be an honor but my dance card is full.....could you step up to plate/seat:laugh: PLUMMEN wrote:

IMO, If Kawasaki was smart they would talk to Dave and build his bike as a New Model. Its like having the best of both worlds. The Zephyr of the late 90's and The ZRX 1100/1200, but I think Dave's bike looks better than both of the above Models. It's what I would build if I could. Thanks for sharing with us Dave!!!

Thanks for the compliments all....

As for first ride, how the hell do you guys think I could even consider putting trianga on my bike when I didn't do any support fabrications on the frame....

Besides, I love my KZ and she loves me... Why would I hurt her or disgrace her that way by putting any of you phat stinky arses on her....

For kaw-SUK-man, he'll be lucky if I even let him touch the handle bar grips let alone sit or ride her.....
