New kz build ,finall going to happen After 20 yrs

New pics coming soon project is moving along very well

I think what he meant was that the pictures you posted are upside down!

this will be a cool one to watch.
hard to beat a 1075 for power and reliability .

Cool build! I love the big tire/old school stuff. Just a little inside on my side, I'm doing a 1200 again for the street, not my first but after doing 1075's for the last 2 or 3 years, I'm sold on the bigger stuff. It's just as durable and streetable and much more powerful. I'm a firm believer in the 1200 being the ultimate KZ combo. It will sit in real world traffic unless your in stop and go LA type stuff. It is after all an air cooled motor and no mater what size it is it will overheat at some point if you sit still. :blink: Sometimes rewards do have a cost and in this case and with my opinion, it's a win/win situation!

les ,
are you talking big bore sleeves in a stock block?

i have no experience with kz engines any bigger than 1075.
just curious,
cause somehow it seems i always want more :whistle:
:evil: ...
and i have the machines and ability to punch my own block out,so anytime i can sleeve my old stuff and NOT have to buy a big block i'm interested.

Very nice build! I was excited to find out what tail you are using. I looked up Beasley and see that they have a cool 8" wide tail. Perfect for my project. Just what I was looking for.
