I finally finished this one for Leroy, it took a long time waiting for chrome. The candy orange is not nearly as bright as it looks under the led lights.






















Here are all the nasty things that got replaced in the wiring harness.

This looks better.







The blinker switch is incorrect in this picture, it has been changed to the right one.



The timing cam was shot, replaced with nos.









I made a new one of these out of Delryn, color is a little off but not bad.










The horn is always a challenge.





















The tach warning decal is for an H2A, I will replace it when I can find one.









The stator harness should be above the bolt head, not below it. It has been moved.














I think Leroy has to restore an S3 and an S3A and he will have all the years, colors and sizes of the US Kawasaki triples.

Does Leroy have a showroom? Man, I would love to see all those bikes you have done.. just like brand new.

What an incredible job.
Congratulations. It looks better then new!

He doesn't have a museum that's open to the public but he will gladly show the bikes if he has time, which he usually does. It is a stunning collection. If anyone ever want's to come out and see the bikes just get ahold of me and I can arrange it.

Another great resto, Guts, keep it up.

Beautiful work as always!

Amazing, and expensive work there, impressive, and glad you are bringing some bikes back to life.

Your attention to detail is amazing. Do you restore bikes for other people or just Leroy ?

Thanks for the compliments my Brothers. I have been doing bikes for Leroy one after the other for 6 years now, he keeps me kind of busy. This is the 25th bike I've restored since the first, the 1965 B8, about 7 years ago. Since I've been restoring bikes for Leroy nobody else has ever asked me to do one for them.

Could I ask who does your paintwork?
