Hey 12 owners. luggage tie points gone !!

Here is the result of the removal of those horrible sticking out luggage tie points. I used the same bolts that hold the seat with helmet cables attached to them.. Just painted them matt black and i reckon it looks much cleaner.

I'll have a big ugly ventura rack poking out of mine next week, but it does look good.

blue is nice.

You've been busy Paul they were on ya bike last night when ya called around. I remembered looking at them and thinking to myself that they wouldn't get used very often..

Good clean job you have done there.

Cheers

Very nice Paul

I already had 2 of them ready cause when i put the seat hinge in i had to replace them. I only thought of it last week and ordered the other 2. So soon as i got home i painted them up and whacked them on. Even had time to do an oil change as well.. And yes they have never been used..

that looks excellent mate, I saw a 12 a couple of weeks ago that had a very similiar mod, but used plated dome-head bolts - it looks much neater than the stock fittings, thats for sure........

I did a bit more *bling* on the 12 last night myself actually, will post photos shortly..... ( indicator and mirror block-offs .....in true *wasteland* style )

I have always wondered WTF Kawasaki were thinking when they made those bunjee hooks! But now I know! They wanted to give B12 something to do at work!!!!!

BTW B12......there is dirty marks on the tailight surround on the ducktail! Mate...some attention to detail would be nice!

Mick, your are just jealous of the presence of the big horse power machine..

Don't provoke me boy!

When I'm a big boy I want to be like Donut Man

So you secretly wish you had a 12R!
I see how it is, a closet 12R fantasizer huh go on just admit it donut boy wonder

Another 12R thread it was a sports bike by design in it's time hence the "ZX" and "Ninja" descriptions in it's model name. It still will pants manya bike out there today, ask the Qld lads about which bikes that were always out front on ride days, a long way in front at that...
