KZ200 Cafe Racer
10 Feb 2013 22:42
1978 KZ200 Cafe racer... I made the custom Carbon Fiber gas tank and Carbon Fiber seat myself. Rearsets are off a Yamaha R6 donor bike, which I made custom brackets to the frame to work. Battery and wiring is tucked up nice and neat under rear of seat to clean up the middle of the bike. Stock motor with pod air cleaner.....Stock exhaust ...I like the look of the nice chromes stock exhaust. Headlight fork ears are from a YSR that I bored out to make work on the KZ..Gauge cluster was lowered under the triple tree with a special plate I made to give the bike up front a lower look. Bike runs great, now just need to take apart once again to powder coat frame from all the misc tabs,brackets I removed and didn't need. Bike has lost 101 lbs from the stock bike it started as.

Ive never dealt with a carbon fiber gas tank,but you might want to seal inside of tank if you haven't already
