Re: KZ650, My first motorcycle Coils for the KZ fire 1&4 as a pair and 2&3 as a pair so I would take a look at plugs, wires and connections if those are the two that have week spark. If they are not firing and you are not sure on spark check your valve cleaences. Plus carb sync is really...

Re: KZ650, My first motorcycle Go over to kz650.info and read the carbs section of the board. They list the carb settings of a lot of guys and what they are running and should give you a heck of a good idea.

Re: I know it's a KZ200, but it was FREE... Very nice!

I don't have a thread here but have one rolling on 650.info and the bike is running great, I am doing the cosmetics and will be tearing down and rebuilding the motor in the fall or as soon as I have anouther bike up and running.

Like I said on 650.info I have been following you here too. Looking forward to getting mine to this point. Looking good for sure.

My '78 titled frame basket case and I are watching this one for ideas....

Looking great. Oh and if your experiance is anything like mine you will love the tires.

Re: Building Masculinity and a XS650 Engine Looking great! I'll be back to review this once my engine is up on stand and ready to get done right.

I do all the time, even when doing metal work as long as it is not grinding or welding. But I am kinda biased as I make my own and have sold a few in the past. As for the ever get laid comment. I have trouble thinking of a time I have gone out in mine and not gotten laid. I wear them to...

The R6 is the same splines on the shifter. I went ahead and used 08 R6 rearsets on my KZ with the stock shifter flipped to the rear making it a gp shift and I can still use the kicker.

As a big fan of the Swedish films (I own all three) I was very worried to see the new american one. I still haven't seen it but a friend of mine who is equally into the originals said it was very good so I guess I am going to go give it a shot this weekend. The CB certainly doesn't hurt.

You should be very happy with the conti-go's. I love mine.

WOW! Those first two videos absolutly mesmerized me for the full 30 or so minutes. Way cool stuff.

For starters go over to http://kz650.info and bum around a bit. No better source for KZ650 info.

Ok so I am working a classic board track style bobber XS project and love those tires, what are they?

Well that one is certainly a little rough but if it's titled or easy to title where you are at I would say go for it. I love my KZ650C2. There is also a TON of info for them and really strong support from kz.650.info

looks can be decieving... that is a hardened tool steel metal cross cut file in two profiles and a rasp designed for use on aluminium on the the other two sections. The rasp made FAST work of taking down large ammounts once the cross cut had knocked down the sharp corners of the nut.

Not really. maybe 15 minutes an insert tops once I had it down.

Here are the photos of my "Redneck lathe" including the file and belt I used. Lots of stops to caliper but way cheaper than paying a machinist. and the rearsets all mounted up after welding the new inserts to my frame.

I will post pictures later but I needed to make theaded inserts to mount my new rearsets to the holes I drilled in the frame (this was all preplanned) Since the machinists who was willing to do it for free turned out to not have time I had to work it out on my own. I ended up using 10mm...
