i want 70's dragbike parts

i want my bike to look like it was built to race and then parked in a garage for 30 years. so if you have any older parts that will fit a 1980 kz frame or a 1974 z1 900 engine, or if you know any mods people did to make their bike diffrent/faster back then let me know.

thanks Chris

i remember some really bizarr looking paint jobs ,other than that it was mostly modified stock stuff that most guys were using for low budget racing.if you had a kerker ,yosh or denco pipe a set of smoothbores and an 1170kit with a sticky tire you pretty much ruled the neighborhood!;) most of the stuff that was run at the track in the 70s and early 80s had no place on a streetbike,but god knows we tried to make 13:1 motors with cam lobes that looked like 2x4s turned on edge and 33 smoothbores work in basically stock chassis street bikes!too little frame,too little suspension,way too little brakes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:unsure: :ohmy: :huh: :dry: :blink: :blush: :S :woohoo:
