Just checking, but were you going to put a fairing or 'screen' of some sort on this?

Having just gotten back (to the forum) I was jaw-dropped by your build. Nothing but awesome complements; please build some more Kawasaki big bores!!! :D

Thanks.
No! not putting any fairing or screen on it, just went for the bare bones minimal look and am riding it just as it is.
I do have another build on the go which should end up as a 1428cc Gardner style Moriwaki Z1R superbike with turbo.
Again i'm going for the minimal look and will start a new thread once I have most of the major parts collected.

Zed1015,
What Tach and Speedometer are you using? I saw that it is digital...very cool. You build looks great! How much gas does your tank hold?

I originally fitted a Danmoto Nano cockpit but the tacho packed up after 10 mins and the rest followed 80 miles later ,a real pile of crap :angry:
I replaced it with a Motogadget LED item which is smaller and works perfectly .
The tank holds more than it looks as there is no tunnel etc around 3 gallons-ish , I haven't actually got round to measuring it properly as i'm too busy riding it :cheer:
Here's a pic of the speedo, the motogadget is the one in my hand.

Fantastic job Zed. Any pics of the painted bike?

Your Custom Race Bike build is being featured in the BikeBuilds.net
directory here: zed1015's Custom Race Bike build

We’re currently displaying only a reduced-size photo (similar to what you’d find in Google
Images). We'd like to ask for your permission to publish the original full-size image with your
build listing.

If anyone would like to have a build of their own listed, just send me a message with a link to
the build thread and we’ll take care of the rest.

Hi, Yes! you have permission to use whatever you want.
As for paint, there isn't any as it would add weight :laugh:
It's staying bare alloy and gets a wipe over with a rag and wd40 every once in a while.

Have you considered filling the tires with helium to reduce unsprung weight? ;) Ed
