What rear wheel set up is that? Looks wider than a stock kz1000. Is it just a wider tire or whole rear set up?
Thanks, Please let me know

I believe it is the original wheel. It's a 16"x3" with a 140 tire on it. I don't see any issue with it rubbing on the swinger.

ok thanks, i think its cause your tire is not "tall" for lack of better words is why it stood out to me. i have a rear 16 but seems like a "thick" tire.. height wise. Thanks again! and good progress!

I had a friend that offered to paint my bike for free. Couldn't pass that up. Candy Blue over Silver Metallic with Silver and Black Stripes. Think ZRX style. Getting her painted and it is about done. It's a garage paint job so it probably won't be perfect. Had to sand the clear coat down a bit and re-shoot do to some dust bunnies, e

I will post more when I get them.

Finally getting there. Got the valves adjusted and the engine running. Now I just need to button things up and get the rear duck tale and tail light bolted down. Not much left to do.
