never even seen one running..had one in the garage when i was 22 and no money to buy it..just sat with my bikes till a friend of a friend found storage for it,he ahd got it as a debt from older brothers... then it was gone....it had a big block and sidewinder deal ,all pimped out and low rider with missing parts...but i know today,now, what it was cause one of the parts, an extra tank with a lowrider paint job was left behind and never fit any kawasaki we had ,and we had almost all at one time or another hanging around or there....weird tank...offset gas cap and larger design...

More photos as promised.....
Thank you all for your appreciation of what I've done and advise from you guys.
This has been a labor of luv for me, and I've thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
This is the best way to get to know your bike and what its all about.
By the way...I'm no mechanical genius by any means, and don't have a flash workshop with all the bells and whistles.
It just goes to show what you can achieve with a bit of commonsense determination and patients.
Cheers...Dave
