KZ750 build

Well, I figured since its just about halfway done now I can make a thread about it

When I got it

Little bit more work done

New bars, no gauges

Got a killer deal on a better (imo) looking tank

As she sits right now (tail section isnt even secure, just mocking up)

It still needs a pile of stuff, but after having the carbs off maybe 50 times with a million different jet setups, I'm finally happy with the jetting combo. I'm going to see what kind of foam I can find tonight at Joanne fabrics. Other than that its a fun little project that is helping me neglect my lawn, family, other bike (z1000) and cars, lol.

nice bike matey, im rebuilding one at the mo, gonna have a zx7 front end on her though, what jets did you end up using as i would like to run pods on mine too.

I went stock on the main (which is a 125) and a 35 on the pilot (32 is stock), stock needle at stock height, it MIGHT be a little lean up top, but the pilot is spot on. (32 is stock). I went to my local bike salvage yard and started pocketing jets and needles until I found the combo that worked best for me.

thats the problem we dont really have any bike scrap yards over here in the UK, have to start looking for some 35's .
good luck with the project, cant wait to see it evolve!

Coming along little by little, I say that because I still like to ride it, so I dont do anything involved enough that it will make it un-rideable for more than a couple of days, the tail section is painted now, "winter grey" It look kind of like a shiny primer, which is exactly what I want.

Bumping it up! Paint has been applied, and header wrap. (not pictured)
