Hi all from a miserable England,but a happy hoarder of projects!
My most current thing is a kawasaki z650 with a suzuki oil cooled engine,kawasaki usd front end and a zx7r extended swingarm.

I was bored looking at it yesterday,so got the pipe bender out and started modifying the frame.

The plan is to brace,brace and then brace somemore,before cutting the frames cradle out,making a more interesting frame.

I was hoping to have done the bracing and chopping of the frame rails today(its 7.30pm here),but got sidelined with other more pressing stuff,so more on that in the next few days.

I like the way that Z650 is heading mate. Keep us up to date with that.

The EFE looks sweet as well.

Hard to tell where the Z1000 is going at this stage. The green frame is making me feel a bit ill I guess.

Keep it coming mate, we love these build topics.
