picked up this ulgy as sin Kawasaki 454LTD because I needed a 2 wheel fix. But, I can't do ugly, and I'm 6'3" so I have to do some chopping to fit.

Finally had some time today to work on it.

Before:

all the lines are wrong, everything with the bike is wrong, besides the fact it makes a touch over 50hp.

started by cutting out a chunk so I could do some bending

did some bending..

looked good exceept the tank was up too high.... definatly not hella flush

so I had to cut out a few inches on the front tubes.....

and then weld it back up.........

now it was hella flush........

I cut the ass end off....

and added a trailer fender and made some stuff to mount it.......

this is how I left it sitting for now................

tomorrow it'll get a 3.5" stretch....... 

I took out a good bit of angle on the forks, hopefully it doesn't want to shimmy.

It looks a lot better now.  The down tubes don't look safe though.

stretched it a little differently than I had planned in my head yesterday. Added about 3.5"
