This is my 1977 Kawasaki KZ400 Barn find from Wisconsin. This little gem was parked 5 years ago with a mere 7800 miles on the clock by a very dear friend of mine who I love like a grandmother. $200 and a long drive later bringing her to Indianapolis in a uhaul trailer she was getting pulled apart down to the frame in my garage. Complete, undamaged and original. Lots of rust and corrosion but nothing beyond repair really.
I have big plans for this little beauty. Custom 1 off fiberglass cafe racer fairing, clubman bars, new electronics, controls, rebuilt forks, brakes. New rear gas shocks. Custom 1 off fiberglass seat and tail with integrated LED tail lights and rear facing camera to display rearview on a small screen mounted in the front fairing by the gauges to eliminate the need for mirrors. Rebuilt motor. 2 into 1 exhaust. New headlight mounted in fairing instead of on forks. Front signals integrated into fairing. 520 sprockets/chain, Awesome paint job, re-laced wire rims powder coated to match frame. New carbs w pod filters. Lithium battery, new wiring harness, electronic ignition, iridium plugs. Stay posted for build pics.
