Jaan,

I have just embarked on a K-Welded Serial Number (No Tange, No Cry) KZ-1/2 build (still to decide) and I am abso-fooking-lutely blown away by this build!

Lush.... Simply stunning.

Just one observation..... the Decals don't look right for the model? Sorry if I err, but I am confused:

The only reason I am being so picky is that I have just scored the Decals pictured in the Ad for my build, and your lovely is wearing a different set!

Oh, how my OCD messes with my BMX pleasure / bank balance!

Still fooking BOTM right there!

*ps* The DBSS is ready to be built and you will LOVE it!

Jaan · « **Reply #73 on:** April 18, 2013, 10:38 PM »

Hey Rich,

The decals are OG

the 1980 KZ1s used up those that were designed for the KE1, then mid 1980 Kuwahara changed their logo for printed materials (ads etc) by placing the Hinomaru above the K and slowly it filtered through to their decals in 81.

I was inspired by the ad that you've pasted in, I wasn't attempting to replicate it - there are other differences in addition to the decals. If you're after building a replica you certainly have the right decals, you'll also want to use a MS-1000 Mini Stem and KKT Lightnings, thats if you're building to KZ-1 spec. What year is yours?

Regarding your K-welded frame set, I might be biased but IMO the K welds are superior

Can't wait to see the DB SS
