XS400-Seat

Santa comes in January :-)
The KZ-s tires are arrived.

These are all of the assigned components for the Kawa.

Approaching the finish of the seat.
Silver soldered threated nuts.



 It fits.

And finally
the proof of the pudding is in the eating.
Or in the sitting?

XS400-Seat

Seat fixation.
I made a little extra for Árpi.

 The front fixation and the plate overlay are riveted and the plate's corners are soldered with silver.
The rear fixation is the following...

KZ-Fender

Finally I could commence!
I made a fender shaped wireframe to the tire and a paper sample from it. I redrew it to a 1mm sheet metal. I cut it and smash it.

The best thing is that I made it without using a steel hammer.
This will be the final distance between the fender and the wheel.

XS400-Seat

1.5 mm sheet metal. Hard to work with it.


It looks pretty nice on the bike.


Árpád riding the iron. Testing the sitting position and the handlebar. He said it will have an "English look"...IF finished :-)

XS400

On wheels!
The rear suspension is ready.
 130mm ground clearance. Worth while my balls :-D

XS400-Tank

CZ 175 Sport tank.
For Yamaha.
Of course it doesn't fit. Cut out and becomes a  new inner. 
Fitting the inner.
Test.
Assambled to the final form.
I'm weilding. The tester petrol is flaming out trough the inlet,
and blow out with one move.  
Done! And it doesn't leak!

KZ 750 Twin - Frame

 I have not too much to explain. The shapes are formed yet.
