I ride a '99 ZRX1100 and '03 SV1000. My KZ900 is undergoing a major build in the projects area. I live near Old Shakopee and HWY169 in Bloomington. My bike is currently up at my family's shop near St.Cliud where I have access to our MIG welder for the frame work. It will probable be a week or so before I can get them for you to "fondle"

Sending PM Jarrad. As for heel plates, working with a shop with a waterjet to possibly do heel plates and chain guards.

Les, really nice work!

From what I understand the R1 spline is identical to ours, just thought I'd let you know. Keep up the awesomness (lol)

Sorry for the delay Kaw-a- holic. I'm not 100% sure, I think they are the 99 and up R1's. I read this on a thread on the UK board. There might be a chance that the R6's will work also of the same generation. You would think Yamaha would run the same size shifter spline (R1 & R6) to keep production costs low, but I'm just guessing.
