Adding this to a 76 KZ900 project, that black grab rail was from Brian KZ here.
His $10 dollar rusted bar for a blacked out 77KZ1000.
Nice stuff, powdercoating.
Yes that is 1976!
Livin in "CheektaVegas, NY
Went thru 25 of these in 40 yrs.
I SOLD OUT! THE KAW BARN IS EMPTY.
More room for The Old Girl, Harley 75 FLH Electra Glide,
Old faithful! Points ign. Bendix Orig. carb.

That's nice!
Like that you kept the rear fender, that looks good especially when you re-position the taillight up under the tail where it's supposed to be.
Spoked rims, hell yeah...

Still altering the fender, gonna reposition it. Might even go struts so bike can go lower!
its running a 1/2" custom welded offset sprocket 530 chain size. Sheit canning the MAC pipe for a flat pipe or dragbike pipe.

Stock parts are for a for sale project here. Frame was out of Ohio, already powdercoated. So I finished it off. I sold this Suzi swingarm.
I usually just paint my stuff with single stage black urethane.

I like that KZ frame with bottom end that you've got! We talked once before about it, but I think u lost my message and email address. B)

What's the setup as it sits now? Swingarm? Bottom end? :)

I'm still curious about it. I don't really need it, but...

What's the swinger on there? It looks tubular, not boxed.

Nevermind, I see I'm just blind or stupid. It is boxed.
