Yep the plastic is salvaged ABS, but any thermoplastic will respond to the same techniques. I'll get some more pics as I go along.

Hi Guys,

Ken from BikeBuilds.net here.  Nice work!

We were glad to add  testarossa's bike to our directory: www.bikebuilds.net/kawasaki-78-kz1000-fi...-build-by-testarossa

If anyone would like to have a build of their own listed, just send me a message with a link to the build thread and we'll take care of the rest.

Ken

Curious if anyone has these valves in their 1075 build. Any opinions on the quality?

Manley valves are some of the best and have been around for years.
You won't find better.

Thanks! I let life get in the way for an awfully long time now. Trying to get back into the swing of things, and get my KZ back on the road.
