A non restored,non chopped, non cafe racer 750 twin

This is the odd ball story of a free bike and a strange misson to restore it.
I recieved this bike as a "gift" to get it out of a guys way. I brought it home with the full intention of parting it out on e-bay (you almost got to bid on some of this)

Screw the "here is how I did it" Story, Its late and I'm tired. I thought I wanted it white for a while. But that just didn't cut it. kzrider.com/index.php?option=com_ponygal...&func=detail&id=1128

So I did away with the white and

So I went "Back in Black" (Thanks AC/DC) kzrider.com/index.php?option=com_ponygal...&func=detail&id=1123

But I still wasn't through. (gotta love free bikes, if you get bored rip it up and start over again )
And that led to the latest incarnation.

It now is an 83 KZ750 twin sporting a tank off of a Suzuki of some kind that was made during some year (hey it looks good and free with no leaks)
A set of HD sportster footpegs (again year unknown)for the driver, A 2000 HD Dyna seat and mufflers (can't beat free stuff) a mirror that just showed up in the garage. And other crap from some other bikes that I can't remember @ this time.
If you should make the wise decision and decide to come to the Vintage motorcycle races @ the Barber motorsports park In Birmingham Alabama in October it will be there. No not racing or being shown but probably being restrained by the police in the parking lot. :silly:

I love the final product. You've come a long way, baby.

Nice bike! Turned out nice. But are you sure that HD seat can handle all that KZ power? :whistle:

Welllllll it is holding up fine so far. Of course I had NO oil leaks on it until I put all the harley D stuff on it. A friend of mine commented today that if the bike was still in production today it would probably look a lot like what mine does.

Looks great! Not bad for free...

Well the "Screaming Flaming Kawasaki of Death" (I'm working on a copyright and t-shirts) got an honorable mention in the "What the hell is it supposed to be" category at a local bike show over the weekend.
It just goes to show that if you can't impress'em then you can at least confuse'm.

Oh yeah truth be known that was a special category they invented just so I would put in the show.
It was the only one that category and still only got an honorable mention. But the $10.00 went to a good cause.

Congrats. Looks good.

Bump, just trying out how this new board works on bringing old files back up.
