Your bike looks great. Looking forward to seeing the finished project.
My stepson is doing something like this to his 79 KZ650C3. He has 2000 ZX7 forks and bought a ZRX swingarm that had been on a Z1.

Well Leon (531blackbanshee) has been working on my triples quite diligently. He was also kind enough to send me some pics of the work for a better understanding of how it works, so I'll share with you all (hope you don't mind Leon).

Stem pressed out of the KZ triples


Bushing made so the stem can be pressed into the ZX-6R triples


Bushing on the stem before weld, and after.



And the stem all together.


All in all a pretty neat process if you ask me, and appears to be superb work!

all done.

Awesome! Hurry and ship them back xD

A question I do have though. Will any aftermarket ZX-6R top triple work with this conversion? I'm looking at a HoHey drop tree, so I can run my dirt bike bars, and was wondering if it would be a direct swap. Thanks!

shoot you got me boss !

i did not have to do any mods to the upper triple,so i would think that you would be fine.
i would make sure they were for the correct year and model that your frontend came from.

Sounds cool man. I love the old twin bikes, and I plan on buying one after I finish this bike. I know how you feel about the young age, I'm only 21 myself, but I do have a solid career already PM me with any questions you have, I'm more than glad to help, along with a lot of others on here.

Fun to watch - like your style.

But where do you get a front end for $ 250

Browse eBay everyday, there are some deals to be had.

Well the build is at a stand still for now until I get more parts. Bought a front wheel and tire off of a ZX-6R, got my Nissin radial master cylinder, clip ons, Sintered brake pads, and finished up the harness completely. Look for a huge update late next week, she will be rollin!

Bike is looking great!

I bought an Acewell gauge, the same one you have wired to yours.

You said it was easy to wire to your bike, but I am a little confused on the wiring...

Looking at the wiring guide Acewell sent, they have a pretty simple setup:

www.acewell.co.uk/manuals/ACE-2853-A-Wiring.pdf

But where they have one wire for a turn signal indicator, for example, my bike's wiring diagram shows 2 wires for each turn signal indicator. What's up with that?

I also am not completely sure which wires from my bike I need to use to hook up to the gauge's ground, clock power, switch key, fuel, etc., again, cuz a lot of those wires on my diagram show 2 wires leading to the hookup.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
