Hey Tuntiope, First of all, The bike looks amazing! If I may ask the question, Did you also shorten the muffler in length? And also, what steering wheel is that? Best regards, Roy
Hi. Cool bike! You are very smart guy, i really like your bike. Can you please tell me what size and type of tires do you using for front and back wheel? Thank you.
Painted with professional paints and clearcoat. Kawasakigreen was leftover from ninja 250 and that was only modern waterbased paint. Everyhing else is expired aircraft paint. Budget budget budget... i would have to pay serious amounts from a powder coat.
@@tuntiope8681 Top advice! Could I be cheeky and ask how you cleaned up rear end it looks really tidy with that seat. Would love to see a vid of how you shortened
@@jamietomkins5747 No video from the frame work. I regret not taking video while starting the project. Specially when i first got this bike, it was so sad to look at. Now i have couple of gs 500, and i try to make video right from the start.
Hi i am also building my own scrambler out of a ER5, u just replaced the carbu air filter with 2 small airfilters. I realised i had to change the needles and jets. But i lack knowledge... i am not a mechanical. Can u help me with what needles and jets i should go, so it runs smoother again?
If you look at 0:41 and you can see that i have actually the stock airfilter and box. I choose to go with stock because it runs better this way and it saves a lot of time. If you use cone filters with these kind of carbs, it's going to be hard to get them right. Probably it needs bigger jets and a bit longer tube between carb and airfilter to get air in without too much turbulence. I recommend to go back to original airbox and filter.
where did you put the coolant resevoir? what was your solution to remove it from is orignal place? was wondering if its even necessary simply being an overflow. Also any link to that speedometer?
@@andywingate8269 the ebay item doesn't open anymore but it was: Universal Motorcycle Front Fork Cover Protector Gaiters Gators Boot Shock Rubber and seller was called ouyou2010 they cost about 9euros. i think i didn't even measure. those will stretch a mm or two i think.
bonjour est ce que tu serai d'accord pour me dire vraiment en details tous ce qu'il faut modifier niveau du cadre ect je trouve ta becane magnifique et voudrais m'en inspirer pour creer la mienne ;) !!!! vvvv
Great job - looks like Kawasaki built it straight out of the factory - superb finish and detail - thank you for sharing!
Looks stunning,you gave me hope for my er5,thanks👍
Beautiful job
the bike looks amazing, I am thinking about buying ER5 and transforming it :)
Is this the original frame? Or did you cut it? I am wondering what seat you have here and how yout got it to fit.

pirelli mt60 front and rear.
@@tuntiope8681 Salve complimenti per il progetto, mi sapreste dire la misura dettagliata delle gomme
Please provide parts list !
Impossible. I just used what i got hanging around and the rest is from ebay. Some of it i made myself.
@@tuntiope8681 Well god dawn, now ill have to go and find someone as talented as you to rebuild mine :D
@@EKzelllthe muffler looks like its off an 04ish z1000, but you’d definitely have to do fabrication to fit it
Just bought a decent er5 to do something similar, did you have everything powder coated or painted?

What are the tyres called? Looking at getting some
pirelli mt60
What seat? Do you have to make custom mount for it to go on?
ebay seat. rear frame tube bended to fit the seat.
Could You please tell what tyre sizes did you install on front and rear?
i'm not sure if i remember correctly, but i think 130/90-17. Both the rear and front are the same tyre.
Muito bom linda moto meu amigo .
Oi kumpa olisi yhä myynnissä. Ehkä kerrot ostajan esim s.postin niin voin koittaa ostella hältä :)
stay tuned... rakentelen just vähän vastaavaa =)
Lights on ALWAYS when you're on public roads! It's very cheap life insurance!
It looks like It could've rolled off the Kawasaki assembly line.
Helvetin nättiä.
What’s that exhaust?
It's a stock muffler from 2004 kawasaki z1000. Catalytic converter removed from inside.
tuntiope thank you!
