Canadian KZ1300 Build in progress 10 years 4 months ago #920

Constant Topic Author Offline Banned Posts: 2 Thank you received: 0	I picked up this KZ1300 as a rolling frame and motor for a song. I've done a bit here and there mostly cleaning and painting and added '98 GSXR 750 Forks and brakes on the front. I'm in the process of building a draw through turbo set up with a Garrett TD03 rebuilt with carbon seals and a Mikuni HSR42 Attachments:

Welcome to KZ1300.com Constant!

Very cool project you've gotten into. Did the forks from the Suzuki fit right on the 1300 frame?

Please keep the pics coming.

A guy on the KZR site is selling a set that he pressed the stem an 1/8" higher in the lower triple for them to work but this sounds even easier. I was going to rebuild the forks on my bike but if I I can find a set locally for cheap I may just go that route.
