No Ideas, I like Stock Bikes, If I wanted a bike to look like that I wouldn't mutilate a KZ, I would of just bought a Harley GO KAWASAKI GO

demonseed7 thats the cool thing about having bikes/bike parts laying around, you come up with something a little different and creative! Looks good keep the pics coming...

Don't you think demonseed7 has the right to modify his bike a little? To use his creativity? To use some parts he has laying around to possibly save spending money? I favor stock bikes too but this isn't a Z1.

just make sure the handle bars are adjusted far enough forward ..so they don't get hooked in your ammo belts when you do tight u turns
