Just got back from holidays, this bike is something I wanted to make myself, I have a brand new engine (with second hand head) sitting out the back (GPZ1100 B2) ready for me the put into a frame like this one, although I might have a hard time getting the ZRX bits. I love it. Now you got me looking for a frame from a GPZ 750/1100 Has anyone in Australia got a straight frame for a reasonable price???

First Permanent ride the Z1R since Dec1977 (220,000km) as of June 2015
Second permanent bike 1989 FJ1200 dyno'd 140RWH, great bike.
Third ride is now the Frankenstein 1981 GPZ1100B1, 1983 fully recon motor fitted LOVE THIS BIKE
Forth my work bike FJ1200 1989 (same type as FJ above)

Love it lotta work and detail ....put on GPZ750 decals and you'd get sleeper of the year award too ...... and I've always thought since I first joined your 650 was amazing ...... usually don't like a painted frame other than black and red is maybe my third or fourth fav color but this just comes together and is perfect.

Thanks again for all the compliments. The 1982 U.S. ELR got the blue"R" and the 1983 version got the red "R". The badges I put on I ordered from a Kawasaki dealer in the late 90's. They are OEM.

Good Sunday afternoon :laugh:
Color in the forest is starting to look great . I Love the fall for back road cruises to the Apple Cider mills.

If I had Baldys bike that's what I would be doing. Carving up the twisties to go get cider and donuts

BUMP BOTM
To Page 1 for this beautiful day

I have a suggestion for BOTM that might be worth considering; If the bike has a project thread here could you post a link to it?
