07 Jun 2006 04:46
...for my KZ 400 is about 90% done. still have to smoothen the edges and paint it, paint it cuz as you can tell I slipped with the dremel a couple times :blush: :pinch:

Zed400Stef, Very nice job. Couldn't you just polish/buff-out the dremel slips?

I think you did a nice job (be sure and post pics after you finish it). If you could I would like to see the speedo display also.
But for my taste I think it's "too large/busy". But good job never the less.

thanks. it will be a lil before it's mounted on the finished bike, still in the resto process...been at it for a year now cuz I barely get around to it.
I was thinking about polishing it to mirror finish but I'm gonna paint it so I don't get blinded by the sun reflecting off it while riding...
I'll be posting plenty of pics when it's done or anything worth taking a pic of before it's done.
ejshotgun, I'm very curious how it'll look in action too, all I know is from the catalog pic here
