Heres some shots from the Ridge. I set a PR this day with a 2:05

I decided to do a proper photoshoot of the paint before it was never this clean again.

I finished the paint last month and have already gotten a few track days in. I had a lot of fun painting the bike since the finish didn't need to be immaculate - because track bike. All the graphics are painted by hand with a brush and 1 shot. the texture on the tail is just an HVLP gun running...

good buy. cool project

Those will look awesome in stainless. How are you going to make the baffle?

Either the '78 or '79 stripes would look killer on that. https://www.diablocycle.com/KZ650-and-Z650-B2-1978-Luminous-Burnt-Red-Complete-Decal-Set.html https://www.diablocycle.com/KZ650-B3-1979-Red-Complete-Decal-Set.html

Last track day weekend of the year. The weather did not cooperate - it was cold, damp and windy - and I still had a great time. It was a good lesson on adapting to track conditions as I wasn't able to get much heat in the tires being so cold. I practiced tipping in later and faster to minimize...

Its a balance on the crankshaft/flywheel lightening thing - too much and it starts to kill top end. I'm not blazing any trails here, just copying what smart people have done.

Track Day Report: Slipper clutch is fricken awesome - the bike is waaayyy more composed on corner entry. Confidence boosted and I passed a lot of people by braking deep and tipping over late. Day one had good weather and I felt great on the bike. The track-side photog got some decent photos of...
