traded a used clarion hu for this thing.....its a kick only drum brake 75 kz400....a little small for 2 up riding but once my guy welds up the solid struts for it and i lower it, chop it, make a tank, rear fender and seat pan for it....get rid of all the girly stuff like turn signals and front fender..mufflers...guages, speedometer might stay and thats a big might....very reminiscent of early british bikes, that is what they were modeled after though so it makes sense....anyway you have to picture it with the ass end lower, the front end a hair longer, a set of 10-12" apes, no turn signals, a solo seat and fishtail tipped single exhaust.......flat black cause im poor and its cool, ribber rear fender, probably a homemade taillight and sissy bar....its gonna be pretty sweet for a back and forth to work ride...
