Project KZ1300

[wheatonFJR]

If Don breaks that sonofabeech...he is going to have the whole Forum come down on him. And I'm pretty sure a wrench will be flying through the air at his head from some place up nort.

No pressure man...

Wonderful!

One of my joys in life is to see and hear old bikes coming back to life.

Great job! :thumbsup:

I was hoping you'd lose that faring. Other than that it looks and sounds fantastic

 

[wingshot]

That is simply awesome.

I'll have to send that to my buddy Shoop. He bought a used KZ13 in the spring and spent the summer getting it running (sort of

I sat on it and just about **** my pants getting it up off the sidestand. Those things are *HEAVY*

Great job Ray!

just went through the book and adding up the weights it comes out to 728 lbs wet. that includes gas, oil, coolant and a battery.The fairing adds a bit but the header saves way more than the fairing weighs. It's not a porky as you think. As far as pushin the cushion, We'll leave that up to Don.

 

[dcarver]

Only 86 pounds more than a Gen2 FJR then?

Wow! 0:08 through 0:35, I'm pretty sure I glimpsed a Sasquatch lumber by, play with the bike, and wander away.

That would be Mr. Sasquatch.

Realistic enough that I sprayed my screen with Bear Repellant..

Crap, my 65 Pan Head didn't weight that much!

Found some most coolio air box covers..

Whatcha all think, SS or powder coated gloss black?



Pretty coolio, the beatup manual next to the bike..


Using the pix above, what would look best, the airbox covers in SS as shown below or powdercoated black?

 

[RadioHowie]

PC black, ya dork!

 

[dcarver]

PC black, ya dork!

Yah serious?

 

[HotRodZilla]

I donno...I like the Stainless, or a Gunmetal gray next to that newly finished engine case...

 

[FJRay]

The stock ones are black plastic so powdercoat isn't an option. I got a rattle can of mexican chrome. No offense AJ.
