Crazy Project - Not a Kwaka

Tue Apr 12, 2011 10:26 am

A mate of mine had a spare motor sitting around the shed and thought he'd do something a little different with it. This is just the mock up at the moment, but you'll get the idea. (Sorry about the crappy phone pics)

That's not the actual block that will be in it. The one going in is a alloy small block chev - alloy heads etc. i think it's an ex Nascar motor. Around about 700hp. but don't quote me on those figures. Pretty mad either way.

Bit more of an update. Forks and triple clamps have turned up. Some work on the belt drives, rear fender, and footpegs. Also sourced a bigger tank. (Sorry crappy phone pics again)

This should qualify for a Kawasaki forum now as the new tank is off a Kwaka :kuda:

The tank appears to be getting in the way of where the carby is supposed to be? Keep the pics coming I can see a few potential road blocks but I'm keen to see it run. If not down the drags I reckon it would pull a mean burnout???
