THAT is cool! Ever since I went to the flat track races in Ohio a few weeks ago, I've had street trackers on my mind. Never thought about turning my KZ into one. Thinking more about my nephew's XS650 he should be tiring of any day now. :lol:

What's the story on that pic?

Get a H2. Here is King kenny on his two cycle triple.

Greatest respect to the former racers. Gary Nixon passed last week and he had quite a career.

That's what makes me sick....I HAD a '72 H2 in 1973 and, it was a blast....but I sold it for cash to make a move to Texas. Love to have another but, they cost considerably more these days...

TZ700/750 was a 4 cylinder made outta 2 x tz 350 gp bike top ends! with no brakes....
i have DRIVEN a 500 v4 made outta 2 x 250's in a speedway midget and that was freakin' cranky. I can't imagine how badass a bike with extra 250 cc was!
Apparently Kenny had a switch on the 'bars to knock out the coil in 1 or 2 cylinders so he could wrestle it through the corners!

I don't know anything about a KZ or Z1 flattrack bike, but lok at this lunacy! Wade Boyd, somewhat famous local rider rode a R1 based tracker at the Sacramento mile a couple of years ago. Wade has balls of steel.! :woohoo:
Don't be ridiculous! It's only a flesh wound!
