⑭ Starting from the frame: KZ1000/KZ1000MK2/Z1R. Oil drain relocation
You can also check the transmission from the back, so it's like getting two benefits in one, I guess? Old bike oil changes mean removing the muffler—that's t... -
⑬ Frame Build: KZ1000/KZ1000MK2/Z1R. Oil Cooler Takeoff Fabrication
Let's fabricate an oil cooler takeoff. Off-the-shelf units are always bulky. If you're on the manufacturing and sales side, you're stuck with the challenge o... -
⑫ Starting from the frame: KZ1000/KZ1000MK2/Z1R. Rebuilt engine arrives
I purchased a rebuilt engine on eBay. With the packing material, it weighed about 120 kilograms. I thought something this heavy would come by ship, but it ca... -

Progress is slow and steady, one step at a time, though momentum is hard to build. The content is always a bit thin. 5052/T=5MM—chosen so it can be welded la... -
⑦ Starting with the frame: KZ1000/KZ1000MK2/Z1R. Cutting away unnecessary frame sections
Tomorrow is a lucky day. It's the dusty cutting work I really dislike. Due to time constraints, I'll just do the left and right plates and the brake pedal bo... -
⑥ Frame build: KZ1000/KZ1000MK2/Z1R. Marchesini 3R, Advantage Showa 41mm, Sunstar Neo Classic, CP3369 Metallica

I have to come up with content somehow, so progress is moving along steadily. I'll proceed with a 52 that was lying around as a sample for now. If that doesn...
