SOLVED !!!! help Id What is this part from?
« on: April 23, 2012, 12:56:57 PM »
hi folks

I am trying to sort out what this seat is from
so i can find the appropriate seat foam



the tail fairing is also a mystery it is made of metal



the wheels I am fairly certain are Kawasaki
so i am guessing the seat and tail fairing is as well



##EDIT##

found what looks to be the same tail piece on ebay ... although mine is in alot better condition on ebay

That's what came to mind right away is a kz 900 or 1000.

The front wheel might be a real Morris wheel? The '82 Kawasaki 550 Morris clone I have has a built-in disc mount, with 7 bolts attaching the discs to the wheel, while your wheel looks like my real Morris, fitted with Honda discs?

My guess is Kaw. Go to an upholstery supply and buy some high density foam and fab it yourself. A lot of guys use an electric knife to cut it.
