Very nice Ltd. How did you finish the wheels and lower fork,legs? I have legs off my old gs1000 and just gave up on a home anodize experiment

Everything orange was powdered coated before I got it. I've had the bike for 2 years and in that time all I've done to it is replace the throttle and fixed a wiring issue.

 

The rest of the rebuild was done by previous owner.

Had a young troop that worked with me that bought one of them Honda CBX 6 cyl jobs when they came out. OMG I thought a 4cyl was wide! He could wheelie that thing for a half mile I think. The KZ 1300 was no slouch either.
