Cheap Chopper Build

1978 KZ 650

My cheap chopper build is a 650 Kawasaki. It's been lowered 5 inches, and the stretch 4 inches. It has a handmade seat, and it had struts on it, but it's too hard on the old mans back, so I switched to short shocks. The paint is out of a can, off the shelf.

That is da sh.t

Anybody can spend a gob of cash and come up with a show winner. What I like is ressurected old rides like this!
I actually have most of the parts to build one but have concentrated on doing a '76 KZ750 Twin in the timeless cafe racer style, using goodies like the cast wheels and twin disks off the 650.
If you want a '77 650 cylinder head modded for nitrous oxide, ping me at rider 75 AT telus dot net (remove the spaces, you know...)
