Good quality, I've sent many riders to this website for front fork braces and rear sets.

cool man, i have a 77 kz1000 ltd. will they bolt on? also i got a little cut happy with the sawzall and cut the triangle things that come off the back of the frame off, like the things that the rear pegs and exhaust mount to. is that gonna be a problem?

Thanks,

You should have them re-welded, as they are frame supports........

Yep, mine did. They are legendary. I've been planning to remove those rear peg mounts myself but I just haven't gotten to it. It shouldn't be a problem except now where do you hang the exhaust and where will your passenger put her feet? I am planning on putting removable stalks that move the passenger's feet back a bit and also so the hanger location actually matches the Kerker support point location. It's in the plan anyway.
Oh, wait, you have a B model. Nevermind. Different peg supports. Why would you want to put rearsets on an LTD?

Only thing you need them for is the exhuast hanger on right side,stock brake pedal mount isnt needed anymore with the rear sets

Well im going to have some bracing welded into the frame so im not really worried about loosing the minimal frame support they offered.
Im putting rearsets on an ltd because im making it a cafe, durrrr.
As far as passengers, thats what my truck is for. If my girlfriend wants to ride on a bike, she can go build her one, im building this one, its mine to ride.
Also, please dont tell my girlfriend i said that...

Well, that make sense. It just seemed odd to put rearsets on a cruiser.
Best of luck with your project!

You'll need it with the Tarozzi's. They use a linkage system that utilizes the stock brake pedal mount.

ah,did not know that.
I guess im used to seeing all you guys with sportbike rear sets

Looks like i'll be putting that engineering degree to work. Let the fabricating begin!!!

I think someone with them installed should post some pics. I'm interested in them as well. Keep dragging my shoes around corners...
