79 KZ1000st cafed monoshock was created by greenmeany
New to the forum. Just wanted to post some pics of my bike. It is a 1979 KZ1000ST cafe with a monoshock conversion I am in the process of finishing. I have hundreds of pics of this build(2 years in the making) but here are the most recent. Whaddya think. Need some contructive criticism/feedback here.

Welcome and Que Bueno~ on the build... 
See here, some may not like bobbers, cafe racers, street fighters or are into stock restorations only but one thing we do all agree in is it's done well, accomplished with personnel style and taste, then all is good...
That is one purdy ass cafe racer themed bike, obviously done with thought, skill & patience...
Well done!

Sorry, no constructive criticism here, it's perfect! Truly beautiful!
Can you tell me what color that is, and who makes it? That looks like what I'm looking for.

Very nice build.
The pipes exit a little high for me, but I wouldn't kick her out of bed, I mean from under my seat.

Nice work!
At first glance I didn't like the exhaust, but I must say, after drooling at the pictures for a few minutes, they have really grown on me!
Keep it up, and post a video so we can hear what that beauty sounds like!
