A lot of research, time and money go into these. I've owned the above KZ650 since it was new, rebuilt it numerous times. If you know anything abou these machines you would it's not a cafe bike but a period correct bike built how they were back in the day.
You sir ard an idiot, I'm done with you and your attitude.


I confess that may have looked mean but Im being honest.
I dont like the bike. AND you didnt say what tail light that is, you just showed off your bike. I would have liked to know what tail light that was. If someone looked at that post all they could take away was you posted your bike.

I never called names either.

Hey there. I was just told by a friend I have been cranky all week and I thought of this post. Your bike is fine and it is indeed a labor of love and a work of art. While it might not exactly be my taste, its still a job well done, so I wanted to apologize to you.

Nice bike.

Sorry I don't have time to look it up right now but if I remember correctly people have used like a 2003 cbr600 light or a zx12. if you google it and kz I'm sure it will come up . Also look at z1enterprises at the fender eliminator kit for kz 900 or 1000 or z1. Basically it is a few simple pieces of aluminum. it is slick and adjustable for how much you want of the light sticking out past the ducktail. The pictures will show you how you can make one for yourself if you decide to go that route.

Im doing the fender elimination thing on my KZ650 and a few dudes have put a ZX6E tail light (upside down) on their KZ's. I have a mockup here done by some dude, and here is how it looks on his bike.

Are there any issues wiring in a ZX6E *LED* light to a stock set up?

Because leds dont have the resistance of a filament bulb your brake light failure idiot light will think that the bulb has blown and light up. You will need to put in a resistor of equal value to the filament bulb resistance to fool the failure unit into thinking there is still a filament bulb in it.
