1978 Kawasaki KZ1000 Project - Part 4 - Brakes, seat, gauges 

Thank you. The Z1/KZ900/KZ1000 have always been dream bikes for me and I'm excited to get this one on the road!

Thanks Mark!

Thanks Mark!

Thanks Gilbert and good suggestion!

Very true. I'm happy with the progress so far but there have been quite a few things that didn't turn out like I thought and needed revisiting. But it is a great learning experience and I am getting quite the education on the old KZs. It should come in handy on the next KZ1000 project I have currently in the garage.

Thank you! They are chrome over plastic.

@@jonsmotorcyclerescueandrev3538 If you are going to be a puritan about your Z1000, the points cover, the button cap is off a KZ1000/KZ1100. Your model came out with the DOHC cast into the casing. Otherwise, the button covers polish up nicely (as you are on the way to) and it's only those of us who know their Z's that the button one isn't truly from this model

@@Tommytoff The DOHC points cover was polished today! 😉

@@jonsmotorcyclerescueandrev3538 Yay, you are a purist👍

Thanks David!
