It is great to see your progress. I love the paint on the frame.

Maybe it was because when I initially saw the damage it was not long after you had gotten your bike back home, and I remember the frame rail being "imbedded" into the cases. :pinch:
Duane,
Good to see you around KZr again bud!

Yes Chris The smashed frame made it look worse. I had to cut the bike in half to get it out. I never saw the rear lower mount cracked before.

I am certain that bike will belong on the 2008 KZrider Calendar. I am determined to see it in person.
Are you physically able to do any serious riding yet? I expect you will be polishing the metal bits in your forearms too!

I think I'll be OK riding, being a collision repair tech should have toughened up enough.
I had the metal taken out of my wrist about a year and a half ago. My wrist works better with out it too. I asked for the hardware but I never got it. I wanted to make something out of it, oh well.
I wanted to run superbike bars, I found some KZ bar risers and cut the lugs off the bottoms they went into the bar depressions. I also shined up the sprocket drive. I may have a polishing problem.
