This week, I have been working with my son on the little Kawi.
While I was vacationing in The Gorge, this past week, a pile of parts arrived for the Kawi. Along with starting some bodywork on the gas tank, I also performed the first test fitting of a number of new parts:
- rear turn signals
- aftermarket rubber grips
- new stainless headlamp bucket mounting hardware
- new stainless handlebar mounting hardware
- bar end mirrors
- clubman drop-bars (powders coated black, which is turning out to be a problem)
Here are 4 photos of where I left it last night, when it was bedtime for my helper.




I didn’t realize you were local! I built the white KZ400 you referenced in an earlier post, but didn’t know you were in the Portland area! I got the white bike back from the guy I sold it to and know of one other KZ400 being built into a cafe!
