      Mine is a 2014 also.
      I was at a track night with my bike, and the next day there was gonna be car racing, so many people were setting up camp for that. One guy had a stock 2012 Focus on a trailer he was gonna race. Also saw a 1st generation Focus race car too, I had a 2000 that I drove 230,000 miles.
      Always wondered if they were good race cars.

        They're born racers! The first gen focus dominated ralley racing in Europe for years, the second and third are also top notch racers. Shame we dont get the 4th gen. I'd like to get a first gen zx3 and EcoBoost swap it. Wouldn't be very difficult since the EcoBoost is the new generation of the duratec. And ford sales standalone control packs.

          Theres one more of the kz1300, its loading on to my Flickr account now.

          I really have to thank you and Dave. You definitely sold me a super solid bike, and i bought a bunch of good parts from dave over the weekend.

          If you still have the pic of the bike that you had in the add, it was straight on to the side and the bike was facing right. I think it had the darker maroon fairing on it, and iirc white letter tires. I love that look. So basically that with a little more sport added to it.

              That KZ1300 custom could use rear storage boxes styled to match the fairing.
              Wow! Did not know Kawi made a 6 cylinder bike!

                  That kawaka did have matching storage. It was the big bad competitor to the gk. I like them a lot naked. Ive seen people build them like my old red bike. Shortened factory tail with modern suspension. They look real good. Came fuel injected or carb dependent on year. I want one... bad...

                  Also seen people widen the rear wheel ( its shaft driven )

                    A dead build thread with a widened wheel. Looks really well on that bike

                        Love the KZ1300. Doing a standard version up in Cunard's old ship colors would be fun.
