So for the last couple of months I've been working on a gsx-r (02) rear end conversion on my kz1000j1 below are the picture's.

tomorrow is a day ive been kind of dreading for a while,
I'm going to strip down my kz1000r and transfer all parts onto the "j" frame.

Well braved the cold today 32 degree's out side and decided I'd finish throwing the last few things on still some wiring to do but by 4 o'clock i was so cold i just had to come inside in the warm.

anyway to the picture's sorry they are not that great i was cold and kinda in a hurry!

this finishes the transfer of all the parts from my z1000r to the kz1000j1,

which means i get to start the z1000r all over again,
oh joy!

I think they were all too "gob-smacked" at the sureal beauty, Kano :wink:

Perhaps they are just whizzing over to your web site to drool :wink:

By the way, I am now determined to get stuck into my R2 over Xmas and get it sorted :P I've just secured some more carbs to try..... :!:
And on the 7th day... Zeds were created!

Agree Kerker for both.

Kano i thought you were going to 50/50 the front muddy!

BTW noticed last night that there is a real difference between the photos (thumbnails above) and the image you get when you click on them to enlarge.
The thumbnails look scrunched up a bit. The enlarged ones look in proper proportion!!
