Default Hello

New to the forum and thought I would introduce myself. I am Eric from Oklahoma. I don't have a Kawasaki bike but my latest project is a shifter kart with a 98' zx-6 motor. Pics of the project are on my site. http://www.imagestation.com/album/pi...?id=2108629365

Welcome to the forum, and that's sweet! I love watching the process of people doing DIY projects, ecspecially with anything this complicated. I'm a technological retard, for the most part, so I stare and gape at this sort of thing. It's got a Kawi motor so I'm fairly sure you're at home here. I'm not a mod or anything though. I guess they'll let ya know.

Because the frame had to be stretched and retrofited so much it hasn't turned out as clean looking as we had wanted it to, so while the motor is being rebuilt we have started a new tube frame from scratch to build another one. What could be better than having one way overpowered go-kart is having two way overpowered go-karts.

Welcome man, that looks like a lot of fun, but I don't have to tell you that a flash burn from welding can go through your quickly closed eyelids. I ended up in a hospital 20 years ago from flash burns. Be careful out there.

As far as flash burn is concerned I ended up in the same place as you and I haven't forgotten my eye protection since then. Not being able to see was not fun.
