Looking for a hacked up KZ900 frame part??

Anyone have a cut up junk KZ900/KZ1000 frame? I just bought a hybrid mix of bike KZ 900.
The guy had a fiberglass tail / dragbike seat on it. I did not catch when I looked at it. That he cut the 2 seat hinge parts off of the frame rail? So I am looking for the section of a junk frame with the 2 seat latch parts. so I can weld them back on to this thing and put the stock seat on it. This is what I am looking for. TIA.

Mine had the same thing done to it. I simply fabbed up the hinges and welded those on. It was pretty easy at least a lot easier than removing that tube and welding another one in.

Clean & precise repair there, baldy110! Tidy welds.

We like the hammered-look frame paint.

Good Ridin'

Thanks. I originally wanted a black frame but the powder coating shop screwed up and did it in the hammertone. I went to pick it up and really liked the look so I kept it.
