I'm looking for "upswept hoop" to put on my kz650, is anybody making these? I live in Norway so ordering through DCC/ebay will set me back loads of $$$ because of the horrific import charges we have here :/ Can someone help me out?

Gonna be really expensive for me to re-lace a new front rim with new spokes from buchanans, but it looks like i might be able to get a hold of a front wheel from a z1300, if memory serves it should be 2.15-18. I'm browsing for tires just to get an overview and thinking about the shinko 705's ...

Re: Kawasaki Kaiju (怪獣) - 79 KZ650 - Easy Bolt-On Oil Cooler Mod Following this sweet project! Can't wait to see how it mounts up, thinking about doing the same :)

Thanks :)

I forgot to mention that i used the bolt from the original 19" front that I have. Thank you, will take a look:)

Thanks for the reply, I actually did come across a kz400 front which is a direct swap, but that was also 1.60. Maybe it wasn't stock though, idk. But a good base would be 18-2.15 and 18-1.85 front?

Hello:) I've been trying to make a decision on new wheels for my kz650, wow I never thought this could be so hard:/ What I really want is new spoked rims 18 rear and front but that will be quite costly for me at the moment so I've been browsing for some used mags that could work. The stock on...

Did you get to try it out yet?

Hey thanks for the quick reply and a solution, I will do it like that:)

Ah sorry for not being more specific. I have the top end disassembled, so some soda got inside the main engine case while blasting, not on any of the gears or anything like that, just mostly in the lower part and some on the connecting rods. I have not split the case and was hoping to avoid that...

While blasting my engine it got some soda inside the case, apparently I did not do a good enough job of covering it up. Engine still on table and was wondering what would be the best way to clean it out? The soda dissolves pretty fast in water but I'm not about to pour water into my engine case...

This is one kick-ass bike! One thing though, how is the handling on it with that 18" front?

Truly awesome build! Would you mind posting the rim specs front/back? Considering a 18" front myself. > I must be blind, just saw someone else asking the same question;)

Really nice!
