"Yama-saki KZ 750" was created by Goalieguy35
So what started out as a Rusty 1982 Kawsaki Kz 750 . I Got the bike at the bigging of last winter and working on it to this day. I put a older Fzr or R6 one of the two front end on and i have the matching rear swingarm that will bolt right on i will have to weld a cross member near the seat for the single shock. It also has a 73 Kz900 chrome fender and taillight on the rear. But the rear end that will come soon as for now here is a few pics of how it went. It rides alot better and brakes way better than the stock set up :woohoo:

Out with the olddd!!! :woohoo:


In with the newwwww!









Let me know what you guys thinkkkk

Thanks everyone for the response.. Come to find out the front end is a 2000 gsxr 600 front end. The guy was wrong who sold it to me hhaha because i searched the number on the wheel and the brake levers are not the same as yamaha ones. However i just put a pair of sportster shocks on the rear and now it was unbelievable the even better stance i got because it lower it ever so much where its perfect!!! and nothing is in the trailer haha just paint supplies aaahah

The front end isn't a 2000. 1997-2003 Gsxr600 all had conventional (right side up) forks. It could be a '92-93 Gsxr600 or a '91-'95 Gsxr750 by the looks of it. Perhaps even a 91-98 Gsxr1100 depending on fork tube sizing and length.

Later, Doug

Yes very similiar!! A beefier front end on any old kz or z1 if done right seems to always have a nice flow and stance to them!
