Killed it again. The brushed fenders with black wheels and gold chain really sets the bike off.

I have got to say I am 15 years old and building my own scrambler/cafe racer right now and its people like you that are giving me inspiration to do it. Really love the bike, great look great sound and hopefully great performance! Keep up the awesome work!

That solution for the signals is fantastic. The black wheels and the gold chain work well, I think I like it better than shiny wheels. And she sounds MEAN. Great work!

I love those Hondas, but for me this is the best looking bike you've done. I'm so glad you kept that paint job. Great job

[GETUPANDGO]

Okay okay, the black wheels look super good

[stingray]

Cotter pins in Europe are called split pins. Makes more sense if you think about it. I like the rims. They look good. The gold accents make it look good. Overall great job! Can't wait to see the next build.

Bought one of these 5 years ago to restore. I’ve worked on cars but never bikes so I’ve always been intimidated to start the project. I’ve watched your whole series on this bike, and your bike sounds and looks fantastic. I think this is the motivation I needed to start mine. Keep doing what you’re doing, I love this stuff.

Enjoyed this build start to finish and learned some useful stuff along the way. I love how it's turned out. Very much looking forward to seeing her on the road and the dirt....Wonderful!

[Its.Just.Me.You.See.]

Great seeing another KZ750 back up and running. Nice work!

[firestorm]

That's a great bike! Fantastic job you've made of it. I'd be happy to own that! It's so responsive and has a real bark.

Wow! Excellent job converting a street bike for CASUAL dirt riding. Might consider painting the White Kawasaki emblem Black, front fender needs a black rubber extension as does the rear fender if you want to avoid dirt and mud all over the engine. Skid plate would complete the scrambler look. Amazing you are able to run the pods and still have the engine perform, not easy. Please be sure to provide the details for the carb changes so the rest of us will have a clue! Looking forward to many interesting entertaining videos!

A used 1976 Kawasaki gas tank alone can run $500. That tank is a 😍

Very nice work Taylor, it looks great, and sounds cool, one suggestion, skid plate would finish it off nicely.

[jamesbach]

While not the kind of bike I would be interested in, I do love the process and the results. The bike looks awesome and sounds even better. Keep up the good work.

[ColinFlowers]

Really enjoyed seeing this bike come together. It looks absolutely perfect. Thanks.

[paulfellows]

what a fantastic build she looks awesome and sounds great liked the video

[BROOKLYNSPEED]

been watching some time now and I think this is the best fit-finish project you got done. It's amazing how every next build is a testament to improvement in skills and creativity. I dig the color combo, very much!
Couple recs -if u dont mind- about the build:
- I would add U shape edge trim on the tank seams. Not only it makes them look bolder also adds protection to potential weak spots on the seam. I spray painted some of them and it looks cool if you can't find the color you want!
- Skid plate would help a lot as far as protection. Looks rad too!
- Tail light screw can be an issue if the suspension travel is greater than the distance betweekn tire and the bolt. I am sure you checked it before but just seems much smaller on the video.
Keep it up! its inspiring for sure

I always liked the Kawi 750 twin. I'd love to get one and strip it down to made a bobber. Not a hardtail, but lightened and simplified. Shaved down fenders, solo seat, change up the bars, perhaps fwd controls and a springer front end.

[atcjoe]

Looks cool. Another old bike brought back to life.

my CX500 runs great with pod filters and straight pipes
