EX500 streetfighter

1995 Kawasaki EX500 streetfighter project. about 90% complete at this point. This was the first real 'shake-down' ride and I made my wife drive the car with my camera strapped into the back seat.
Sorry about the sound quality- the wind was fighting with the noise-cancelling feature on the camera. The clack-clack sound heard periodically was due to slack in the chain- fixed.

Thanks, man.

Cool bike, I really like 500 cc bikes it's classic size engine. I have '07 forks/radial brakes on my '78 CX500 it's transformed. On a tight road a good rider can have fun with larger bikes (key words here are tight and good) Keep up the good work. Love your bike!

Forks are from a gsxr 750. EX stem had to be pressed out of the EX yoke and pressed into the gsxr yoke. Find yourself a good machine shop that works on bikes. They can help.

That's funny. My friend said "that looks kinda like a vrod headlight". Nope I cut down the titanium exhaust on my liter bike and that windscreen is made from the leftover material.

Was it easy to fit the forks on the bike or was there lots of modifying, if so what modifications where needed.

Bike looks good, im in the process of building a fighter with my ex500 :) almost done.
