xsspeed Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 goddamn taht shaftdrive bike is cool, like the tank seat idea. Those curves on your tank make my brain hurt thinking about cutting and welding it all up. Good luck man, keen to see finished product. Whats been done to yours that makes it seem to have such a low bum end? Is seat sitting where air/battery box would have been? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
63Ragtop Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Aw shit! I really what to jump on this bandwagon, I've been eyeing those XS650 bobbers for a while now, I nearly bought a sportster tank off TM the other day and I don't even have a bike or license. Your KZ is turning out sweet bro, tank is looking very nice. I guess you have to cert a bike for mods like this, same as a car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anglia4 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 That is amazing! Did you purge the tank while you cut it or just flood it with water for a while first? That work is awesome. Makes me feel pretty stink about my own progress! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
