One Question Though...Will it still require Petrol?
Yes, but it MUST be HD brand fuel.
Anything else would take away from the essence that is Hardly.
This raises a quandry however, since the HD front end will be trying to tear itself free from the rest of the bike, which is a Kawi. I think it's the motorcycle version of dueling polarities. :whistle: :laugh:

hmm...so with that being said, you think HD license plate bolts will rectify the situation? Perhaps then the two could successfully mate....
That could help some, but they must be shaped like skulls.
I think that if you were to use one of those side-mount license plate holders, slap on a rear set of bullet-shaped turn signals and a tombstone tail light (with the blue dot of course), it should set the universe straight, and your bike will be as one again. :laugh:
Seriously though, what type of HD front end were you considering mounting up to your bike?

But then again, with a tombstone tail light, none of that really matters does it!:laugh:

I think that putting any harley parts on a Kawasaki is just plain blasphemous. I would think that such a mod would completely Kill the resale value of that bike. I have no qualms with putting Japanese parts on a harley, I think most of the electrical, fuel system, guages, are allready made in Japan, or hell maybe China by now for that matter. Really the only front end I would even consider would be a Buell USD fork setup. Why stop there why dont you put a Harley engine in it and be done with it.....

First and Foremost. I cant put the harley engine in it, They cost too much moneys, As the Great DAC once said. He may have said it twice. Which brings forth the fact that this "MOD" was only considered because of the *free HD front end I recieved from a good friend. And thanks for your concern, but I am not worried about the "resale" value of my three hundred dollar bike that was purchased because my toyota broke down, and must be on the road later this week if I am to continue to work, As I am not on a busline.
So if you are still concerned about my "Blasphemous" Behavior, What is the cheapest price you can make me on an 82csr 650 front end, so as not to offend Godisaki?
By the way...you do know Harley makes Buell right?
I will be inserting a random "smiley face" as not too offend anyone.:laugh: ( why is my smiley laughing while yours looks so depressed? Maybe some Zoloft is in need)

Forkless,
I think that putting any harley parts on a Kawasaki is just plain blasphemous...
Although I don't have a big sign on my bike adverstising the fact, putting a set of Sportster rear shocks was a huge improvement to my Kawi. Then again, Kawisaki, Harley, they're probably all made in the same factory in China...
