KZ900 project.....gotta start a page sometime

Hey folks,
Ive been meaning to get some pics up of my bike but havent had a chance to really get things going. Here are a few to get things started. After a winter maintenance and refreshing I had terrible carb problems and didnt have time or money to get the bike back and running. But after soaking carbs and thoroughly cleaning them again Its running again. I have a long mental grocery list of mods I want to do the bike but I need to keep putting money aside







Thanks,
Kelly

No front fender? Get yourself a fork brace to improve the handling:

And maybe a set of "Case Savers" if the bike is ever dropped:
www.redlinecycle.com/casesavers.html (it may show a blank page, but the info is there).

So are you going bratstyle with this bike? Nice shocks.

Im looking to get a smaller LTD front fender, I still have the chrome one. But a fork brace is on the list too. Im on the fence about the case savers. I like them in theory but I dont know I will will want them on this bike. Im still waiting for the rear fender brake light. I originally was just going to use the 2 small rear brake lights, like the sportsters do, but Im putting another brake light for peace of mind.

As far as "styles" go.....Im totally diggin the Sanctuary, Wrenchmonkees, and Bratstyle bikes. It will be a mix of all of it I guess. Restomod/Cafe/Bobber/Hooligan/????

I dunno :blink:
Ill try to update this as I go

I like it. Good looking now, can only get better.

HOW YOU LIKE THE SHOCKS I HAVE THE SAME ONES ON MINE ?? NOT TO BAD FOR THE MONEY

The shocks were part of the teardown project. I put them on over winter and didnt have a chance to ride yet. Carbs were DOA. Now that I have them sorted out I plan to do a shakedown ride this week and go over the bike again. Ill let you know how they ride when I get some miles on them.

Added an LED "stop" light today

When parked at night, does the unlit tail light serve as a reflector?

Good Fortune!

cool bike.

keep us posted as you mod things.

Great bike! I like where you're going with it. Only thing I would do is put a contrasting line bordering the gold to make it 'pop' a bit more.

Thanks! And yes that is on the to do list. I was thinking the exact same thing. Maybe a red or black pinstripe line. Im eventually getting a sportbike front end and it would most likely be of the gold anodized variety.
