Twisted's KZ Fighter

Well i picked up this little baby for 350 bucks. its a 77 kz 650 and everything works fine on it exept the starter is starting to go on it. i wanted to build a little street fighter but on a low budget. i have it right about where i want it after some work but the seat is freakin killing me...i dont want to mess it up. anyone know anything about seats? i like the crotchrocket look of the back fender and i dont want a two seater bike. i want the bikes seat to go flush with the front of the back fender, and just have a good look to it. here are some pics of the bike and build. Thanks guys look foward to input from you guys...

her she is when i bought her

See what i mean about the seat..that is discusting

Stripping her down for the rattlecan flat black

Nice find Twisted, especially for the price. That seat reminds me of the one that was on mine when I got it last year. A shapeless lump that the previous owner did. Here's a pic of the seat that was on mine. Look forward to seeing what you do with your bike, sounds like a great project.

yeah i cut the seat pan to make it so its just the size of the seat whole if that makes any sense. i cut it so i doesnt go over the rear fender...heres a lil burnout video for you guys

TwistedKZ, what shape were the original pipes in (rusted, dented, etc.?) Did you cut them or remove them in tact? Ed

they are in goodish shape, i put a 4into1 header on it with a vance&hines sr1 crotch rocket pipe

burnouts are good i likey long time

yea a little smoke is always fun

I'll be the first to admit, I was waiting for you to launch it into the other bikes in your garage :laugh:. Looks good.

On a side note, how much trouble was it to hook up the other pipe?

haha i got it under control, the pipe was easy to get on there when you have a welder lol.
