Wow, that bike is incredibly clean.  Well done!

Been playing with her jets, and loving on her engine's, for twenty-five years... 🥰

Just could not let our recent Spring-like West Michigan weather pass by without getting out for a couple short rides.

It was a great opportunity to focus on tuning the carbs, and to finally give my Gunson Color Tune a go.  


70 miles on fresh top-end.
 

I loved the NT650!! Soo nimble and lite.

I'll second that!  At one point I owned three HawkGT's.  Sold the last one about 13 years ago. 

And, daveo, glad that you were able to get out, as least for a few quick blasts, on that superclean KZ - looks great!

Apologies Mike, tried to sort your picture and lost it

Not a problem, Wookie.  Tried uploading that pic several times, but didn't have any luck.  Not sure what might be going on.....

Still loving the air box/velocity stack setup.  Ten years on!


Can see it's time for a fresh cam cover gasket

How long are your stacks?

The Mikuni KRS-004 stacks are 3.14" or 80mm overall, which is similar to the Kaw. KZ1100A rubber air boot length, btw.

These stacks are easily removed (in pairs with filter attached) through the air box intake opening, as there is insufficient clearance on the engine side.

Excellent, thank you.
