Overhauling... The Z project.

[foolsp33d]

^^ dont have the funds atm to rebuild the honda engine, and figure I might as well use what i have. hence the Ducar going in, then when time and funds allow, the original engine can go back in with a big bore kit. as custom explained to me, there is no need for ANY mods on the frame to make the ducar fit the Honda frame so it was a simple case of unbolt, rebolt. just making it look all pretty in the process and fixing the broken bits that will take the majority of time.
