Hi,

I´m half way through rebuildning my KZ 750 -81.

It´s originally from the US but was imported to Sweden in may 2005. From what i heard it had been standing in a US barn for some years. It came to Sweden and was standing in a garage for some more years when I finally got my hands on it and gave it some attention.

I also want to thank all the people that keeps this website running. It has helped me a lot and given me new ideas. Good work !

The bike when I firs saw it:



Modifications so far:
* New mirrors and bars
* New paint
* New rear end (from a GSX-R 750 2004)
* Custom made seat
* Headers from a FZR 1000
* Muffler from a GSX-R 1100 -95
* Foot pegs moved back



Planned modifications this winter (2009)
* Add dual mufflers (one more on left side)
* Put in YZF 1000 swing arm
* Put in rear wheel from FZR 1000
* Paint rear end
* Overhaul and sandblaster engine
* Powder coat frame
