This is a lower tree I designed and had a friend whos really good at wittling carve out of a block of aluminum for me,he also made the stem out of some high end aluminum for it.
Im a fan old school nostalgic looking stuff so I tried really hard to come up with something that didnt look really square like lots of billet stuff is,and had him kind of profile the edges on everything.
I think I drove him crazy adding details as it went along but now its saved in his cnc so we can start cranking them out at will if anybody wants them!
Hey how do I add images on here?

Don't think you can just upload from your browser.
You have to upload your image to a site like Photobucket or similar, then paste the ID from there - the one with [img] at either end.
Looking fwd to seeing a non-square CNC machined tree.

No problem,thanks for putting them up for me!
Theyre actually made with double pinch bolts on both sides of lower tree,theres just one in each in the pictures.
Those 2 holes on bottem front are for mounting brake line splitter valve

I sent some more teaser pictures to holeshot of one of my personal projects to show you guys just how seious I am about old kawasakis,I plan out it to be the baddest short wheelbased /no bar air cool bike in my area when its done.
I figured after many years of hard service every z1 deserves to have a 1385 turbo/nitrous motor to live out its golden years!
Hopefully holeshot can post them for me when he gets time.

Sorry for the delay: had to take the kids out!
Some missing as having problem with the files - anyway will try & sort them out asap.....
Here's the explanation in Zmax's words:
"Heres some shots of another one of my never ending personal projects that never seems to end 74 z1,hopefully finish before I drop dead!hahaha
Thers a shot of it all together from first quickie build with the 1197 motor in it,rest of the shots are from current build straightening/raking frame 3 degrees and frame bracing job from hell.
Its going to be a 1385 turbo nitrous streetbike with 160 rear tire with a 2"chrome moly round tube swingarm braced like early moriwaki z1r swingarm and wire wheels painted in stock z1 colors this time to play with the heads of the sportbike riders around town."
Enjoy
