I said &#8220;hell yeah&#8221;!! Aaron had a list of things he wanted to do. I would say this is the first step. Here I was to shorten the subframe, shorten the rear fender, add a rear hoop, and make a custom seat pan.<\/p>\n<p>I stopped the frame about mid-way over the rear tire, made a hoop, and burned it in with a slight angle. \u00a0Next I was on to the fender. Reusing one of the original fender mounts I cut off the subframe, I moved it further in toward the motor and burned it in. This allowed me to use the entire rear fender while making it appear shorter. Once the hoop and fender were done all that was left was the seat pan. I always make my seat pans by tacking and building \u00a0right off the subframe. This allows for a clean tight fitment. Once I have the skeleton built I cut it\u00a0free and skin it with 20ga steel.<\/p>\n<p>So far the Kz440 is coming along nicely! Lets see what we can get into next!!
