Hey everyone, been hanging around here for a while decided to join up. I live near newcastle.
Getting close to the end of a build of a 198* Kwaka GT750 (kz-750 P1) Shaftie, but don,t hold that against me.
specs:
Fournales shocks on the back, wiseco 810 10.25:1 big bore kit, head shaved 30 thou, mikuni bs34 carbs, 4 unifilter pods, clear clutch cover, 4-2-1 exhaust pieced out of zx7 pipes, cut down yoshi. R1 rearsets. chopped down rear with single seat, custom led brake light.
euro scooter front headlight, Reikon fat bars. R6 front guard. braided lines all round.

thats all i can think of right now its been about 2 1/2 years in the making. April fools run might be a good excuse to finsh it off.

Welcome Jay, good to see more old z bikes coming out of the woodwork(or cardboard boxes, where most of them have been for a decade) nice work!

Cheers for the comments
A bit of news it got ridden for the first time today, just a quick one round the block due to no reg, definitely going to have some poke once sorted, clutch was slipping a heap but seemed to be getting better towards the end. will wait till after it gets registered and if it is still slipping i will order some upgraded springs.

got off with a Huge fucking grin on my face.
