CruisingRam Thanx for the plans for the bike stand !
I had to get 5 guys to life the bike down when I moved house and now they need to lift it back up again :P Wish I had built it like that..
Now I so far behind on the build so I need to focus on mechanical stuff.

Spygon Thanx, tank and side covers will get painted in original inspierd colors.

Got my sprocket from my friend today !

















Thanx again Leon ! :laugh:

Good choice on the sprocket- those vortex ones are really nice, super light weight. Same one I'm running on my build :)
78 kz 650 custom
Wiseco 720cc big bore
Dynajet stage 3 carb kit with pods
2002 Kawasaki Z750 exhaust
2001 Buell lightning front end
1999 Ninja 600 swingarm with 1999 Ninja 900 rear rim
converted to monoshock rear
Too many goodies to list fully
