Kawasaki GPZ750 Retro
Style: Retro Cafe Scrambler
This is a complete re-working of the GPZ750 Unitrak transforming this 1980’s middleweight sports bike into an ultra cool retro cafe scrambler.
The stance and aesthetics of this machine is defined by the use of the classic 1970’s Z1 900 fuel tank, de-seamed at the back for a better seat fit. The rear subframe is then re-worked and a custom seat fabricated to complement the fuel tank choice. The monochrome theme is continued with the bare metal engine casings, carbs, downpipes and exhaust tips contrasting against the black frame, engine cylinders, forks and wheels. Add in exposed electrics, two shorty megaphone silencers, a traditional single headlamp with metal guard, plus some Heidenau K60 big block tyres and the retro cafe scrambler look is complete.
