Ok so this has been a crazy ride from page 1 til now from a non running POS to an amazing ride
wasnt even something I had ever conceived.

I had never seen or heard of a "street fighter" and only seen a handfull of mono/USD fork
conversions on this site in ridable condition when I contracted this illness I will say
While I have a few things to tweek &

A ton of repainting chroming and upgrading before I am satisfied I will say

THANK YOU EVERYONE!! The help I have received would be impossible in any other venue

for those of you contemplating the conversions one word describes the overall ride

of my 1978 KZ1000 A2A AMAZING!!

How is your bike doing? How do you feel it handles with the radial out back and the bias ply in the front? (at least I'm assuming that fat rear tire is a radial?)
