Re: Retro Fighter 2.0 (KZ 1100 -82 goes Z1 clone)
01 Oct 2013 19:30Got some of it figured out, but having to just guess about "slip" and "sop" and the semi-circle area.
Good Fortune!

Ha..ha...thanx for the clarificaton Patton !
"Slip" is a grinder. Found it at a flee market for about $100.
It might seem as much but bare in mind that the Swedish currency "kronor" (tranlates crowns) is very strong right now :woohoo:
Sop is not a part washer (but good idea, might put one there), its short for trash can.
The semi circle is a ventilation fan kitchen style.
Other from that your spot on..
Will get the floor painted today and some light installed...pic´s tomorrow !
Leon, thanx again for helping me out with the sprocket !

Well...the work shop is getting ready.
Turned out so well I might use it as a show room. The bike comes out well in an empty room with good light.

I had completely forgotten what this bike started out as...incredible transformation! I would never have thought about starting with a newer motorcycle, especially an 1100 shaft drive with no tail! It's really a good idea though if you're going to customize it so radically....ends up looking fantastic and an original 900 frame isn't sacrificed...perfect!
