Personally, I prefer the Z1 bodywork over the KZ1000. I like the more rounded shape. I have been asked if I knew I had Z1 parts on my KZ because the opinion was that I shouldn't use Z1 parts beings they are more valuable...I don't care! I prefer the Z1 parts so if that's the look you like, I say go for it. The first thing I do is get Z1 body parts and change them over from a KZ's. I think they are better looking body parts so that's what I run...

20 Oct 2012 19:26Ok, I forgot my gopro at the shop but in the mean time this is from my phone.
I'm excited. Thinking that I have to finish this project over the winter maybe even by December so I can take it with me to California.

From a distance, my friends bike. The red actually looks good.

jonz,i feel like a nit pick.
but,
you asked.
i don't mind trick pieces being in a highlight type color to draw your eye to it and go "ooh ahhh".
but ordinary regular stuff that every model has on it(i.e. battery box) i would just as soon disappear.
so yes it still pokes me in the eye

it is like going "hey look,i got a battery box":whistle:
just like every other bike,except mines red.
don't get me wrong,your bike is awesome.i AM being a nit pick,and it would be a pretty boring world if we all liked cool sh!t...........
that is my .02 fwiw.
thanks for even asking my opinion.

Oh yeah, Leon?! Well, it pokes me in the eye too and I was thing gray but whatever. My friend has ideas he won't let go of and like I said before I did the polishing and he built it.
Next project I'm going to tackle myself with the exception of the machine work.
That's kinda like a spot on a new pair of shoes. It stands out egregiously. Lol

What kind of rear hub did he use on that wheel?




















Anymore pictures of that bike? :woohoo:
