Default Just acquired a CSR 650...need some help.

I just got a 1981 Kawasaki CSR 650 and I am looking for a rigid frame, but all I am finding are rigid frames for KZ1000 and KZ650. Are they the same Engine? what makes it a CSR? We are Harley folk and dont know anything about these, but are looking to make a killer bobber. Any information is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

per wikipedia
1981 KZ650-H1

This was the first "CSR" model. Similar to the '79 SR650-D2 but used wire spoke wheels and a single front disc brake. It had conventional carburetors and electronic ignition. The engine was based upon the E1/F1 model and it produced 60 hp. The tail light lens is round on the bottom.
