the carbs still need a little getting clean, but I got the big six running... So I got back to do a little work on the ST. 
Installed the swingarm, and trew a shock on it to see how it's going to look on the bike..

I drilled out the lower shockstrut bushing, only to find out that what is left of it will not carry the bike..
Any of you guys know where to order a set of rubbers with 14 mm bushings that will fit these shocks?
Or just drill out the rubber and push in a costom made bushing, don't know if I will ruin the rubber? :S

Do not even start that kz1300 till you have a look at this site. Cam chain adjuster can fail and cause a whole can of worms.
