This 1978 KZ1000 Journey #5

The slow but steady progression of my first ground up resto-mod attempt.

Ron the work you have done on the KZ so far looks absolutely great, are those the brake reservoirs that was so nasty or did you use the other ones you had? And is the wiring harness the one that came with it or is it new, it looks pretty good, and can I get the info on the shop that's doing your rotors, that front one looks like a million dollars. Do they do all rotors or are they just a Kaw. shop? It's been awhile since you posted I thought you fell off the earth, but I know how that other work some how has to come first. That front end looks new. That bike is going to look like it just came out of the factory. Just what I had in mind for both of them. Thanks for the video, give me a call if you need anything I can help you with. Be waiting for some more progress.

Thanks Jack. I've been making pretty good progress recently, and I really think this project will be ready for spring. The rear reservoir came with the bike, and the front is one I had in my parts collection. The harness is original , and I cleaned with denatured alcohol, rags, and persistence. The company is truedisk.net, and they work on vintage rotors. He charges $55 to resurface and another $55 to drill. I didn't have any work done on the front rotor. I just cleaned it up myself. Thanks for your interest Jack. I should have another update sooner rather than later.

You mov'in faster then me. Stay on it man, keep the house dry. Don't paint the motor! Ugly

I'm not painting this one. It looks too good after vapor blasting. Good luck with your project. It's a race to get the bikes ready by spring.
