Hi there I am shoe48 . I have been building a cafe out of a 79 KZ750 twin for over a year now but the end is in sight , There are way to many pics tp ost them all but will post the highlights of this project , If you want to see them all I will give you a link to another site where they all are .. Here is where I started though with this 77 kz750

After working on this bike , I decided to change it all over to my running 79 , this after I bought two other bikes this summer a 1990 KZ1000Police bike and a 2000 Kawasaki Concours , So It all got changed over to this bike

What I have done .. I have installed a Suzuki 1100E aluminum swing arm , Double disc brakes on the front off a KZ Police , Shortened the seat then adding an extra seat cowl to make one , This is the start alling the rear swing arm
