Re: My Rearsets. I used a set from a GSXR1000, 2004 I think, on my KZ1000. While mine didnt mount quite as easily as the ones shown here, it still wasnt bad.

Re: TATTOO's... Lets see what ya got!!.. Left forearm. Mjolnir, Stylized Thor's Hammer containing a Valknut and Triquetra. The reason behind this tattoo is twofold. First, my ancestry is directly traceable to nordic peoples, and secondly, my name, Dustin, translates to Thors Stone, also known...

Here are a couple of pics, not good ones. Pardon the mess, and the unfinished-ness of the bike. The bike is as follows 1994 KZ1000P-13 58K trouble free miles Supertrapp 4-1 exhaust Cheapie Emgo pods 2006 GSXR1000 rearsets Superbike bars Bobbed frame 1984 GS500 Front Fender H2 Mach 3 tailpiece...

Given this somewhat flawed logic, my bike has 18" cast wheels, where does that put me? ;D ;D

Agreed, and thats the direction I was leaning. I look at in this manner. I have a bike that was huge, heavy, and overweight. Under all that mess was a bike that was revered in its day as a "superbike", if you will. After shaving nearly 300 pounds of crap off of there, I have what I want, no...

I know, I know. I can see if I can get a pic in the dark driveway real wuick if you want, but it wont be a good one.

Where is the line between cafe and streetfighter? Does such a line exist? Case in point, my bike. I am currently building a 1994 Kawasaki KZ1000P. I have drawn most of my influence for this bike from the cafe racer, but the more it evolves, the more streetfighter-ish it becomes. The bike has a...

The only thing I currently need for my KZ is a cafe-style seat pan/tailpiece. I plan to make my own this winter, but I would like to buy one to get me by until then. Does anyone happen to have one lying around? The length is unimportant, and he frame width is around 8.5". Condition is...

Good luck getting a hold of him. Joe Purshock is the guy who runs the vintage side of Cosmo, and he is very difficult to communicate with. I tried giving him money for a seat pan for over a month, and when he ceased email replies, I decided I better not send him money. Looking at their eBay...

I bypassed the GSXR linkage, and used the Heim joints from the KZ's heel-toe shifter. I had to shorten and reweld the linkage rod, but it works well now.

I have installed a set of rearsets from a GSXR on my KZ1000P. The only thing I need is the linkage rod from the GSXR. Does anyone happen to have a spare rod, or at least the thread dimensions for the heim joint on the GSXR side?

I have a 1994 KZ1000P with the BS34 Mikunis on it. I had an issue with my intake manifold bots leaking, so I replaced them. I got it running again last night, and it idles pretty well. However, I am still getting an air leak somewhere. I recently added Emgo pods to the bike, and tis is when my...

Please tell me more about the seat pan / tailpiece.. I am trying to decide what to do with my own KZ1000, a P-series, and this looks pretty close to what I want.
