'78 KZ-OW Project

In the above pic is the arm long or the subframe short?

Sounds like a great project in the making Drew.
I like that seat too.
Although I've always kinda liked the H2R seat better.

Wayne, I think the answer is, yes and yes.

The arm is likely a few inches longer than the stock one would be and the seat/subframe looks quite short.

Hey Rob!! Thanks bro!

I like the h2r seat as well, but that's been done, and this one I have in my hands, so... you know!

Thank you! I'm looking forward to this too! It's as much an adventure for me as it is for you guys.



Well, I've got a tank "on-the-way" and now the hunt is on for "running gear". I thought I had a line on some GSXR600 stuff, but the origins are a little too sketchy for me. The frame was cracked and he "says" the rest it straight and true, but... I have my doubts. :dry:

He's still pestering me for an offer. Maybe...

I'll have to see how desperate he is. There's probably some good stuff there.

Whoo boy!! A pretty lazy New Year's Day today!! So... a few hours on the interweb and I've got ideas rattling around here for the front and rear ends of this project. :lol:

I love the scheming and dreaming...
