I also have a MKII I'm building...... In my opinion these 2 bikes are the nicest of all the Kaws! z1r being 1st and the MKII a close 2nd.
My bike is at a stand still. Just haven't had the time to work on her. I did pick up a 1980 kz1000 ltd parts bike with a MKII motor that has 10k and plan to drop it in as the original motor needs some fixing. I want to keep it stock looking but mod the s**t out if it. Have some 29mm smoothbores, andrews 2x cams, V&H megaphone pipe & dyna coils in a box for when i'm ready.
We NEED to plan something for next year! Been saying that for years but its got to happen one of these days.....

if u modernize the suspension there will no longer be a need to wrestle the bike around the turns.
It will fall right into the turns.
