81 kz550 cafe racer
08 Jan 2014 19:44 - 08 Jan 2014 19:51
So long time reader first time poster I got a 81 kz550 for 500$ and I planed on turning it into a cafe racer bike, I will try to post pics but I'm not that internet savvy haha
The first pic is how I bought it and the others are what I have done so far by myself what you guys think?

Looks pretty nice. I'm working on an 80 KZ550 but not a café. Just a nice old cruiser
Two 1983 GPz 305's, 1984 GPz550, 1980 KZ550A, 1978 KZ1000A2A

Have you worked on kz bikes much? Jetting is really temperamental, I warped the exhaust and did put plug wires on it and it leaned out a bunch and I need to rejet it, of cores I don't know what all the guy before me did to it, but I drilled the jets and now it's raining so I have to wait to test it haha
