The Krypt Keeper Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Thinking back of Ken Stotz racing the XX I wondered what front end he was running. so some googleing around I see a pic of this.. Naturally its for drag racing but he has a different front end on.. is this a kawi front end? Wonder what parts he used to make it work? just looking at ideas. I really liked Icepicks bits on his XX, and thinking about stuff.. overall I would much like to have better suspension, lighter wheels, and even more so better brakes. Love my bird too much to cast her off and replace her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwimack Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Whatever the front end is those are some big discs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcePrick Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Mounted backwards to put more weight forward? I know nothing about drag bikes. Drag queens, on the other hand... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Krypt Keeper Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 I figured its mounted backwards for clearence cause the wheel is tucked in so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrxxquad Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 so much to add to this that I just don't have time. Frame is cut and so is the forks, in basic terms. Ask Elixer, he has done it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partsman Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 IIRC,929 or 954 frt end,wheel will be a 16" RC Components.He was using a skinny rad from a VT600 that goes under the seat to let that frt wheel slam in there. He mounted the forks backwards to put extra weight over the axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
