Why my Camaro isn't getting much love these days... Kawi KZ1000P project!

Bought myself a '83 Kawasaki KZ 1000P project! It was already deep into a bobber build when the guy owed money to someone, who then sold it to me. Came with some decent aftermarket parts, but was a basket case...

All brackets and mounts have already been hacked off and the old Police running boards cut off; so no foot pegs. It's a long journey ahead but I'm up for it!

Have hade made some progress since the pic above, will post more later.

Cleaned all the brake calipers due to binding issues from sitting for long.

Love the old KZP tractors! I had a 750 H2 when I was in HS. That thing was a beast! Love my 09 Connie 14.

Well, the only large items are the seat and final mounting of the foot pegs!

Looks awesome, I've owned a few KZ1000's. If you haven't already, hop on over to kzrider.com and say hello! Don't forget to weld up a hoop for the tail.

Sweet project, I'm going to have to follow this. And I know what you mean, when I was lifting my Blazer I made a thread about it here and on the S10 forum and I got way more responses and interest here. Camaro5 is awesome.
