I'm looking for a pic of the correct decals for a KZ1. I am restoring one that didnt have any stickers on it and I have done a search and found that there is some different ones getting around.
Also if anyone knows where I can purchase the correct set that would be super

Ive got a heap of genuine Kuwahara decals but i dont know what model there off if they are the ones you need ill chuck a set in the post for you. Now we just need to find out which ones you require.
Oh by the way im going to visit my mate with the Helium QS next week so keep your fingers crossed on that one too.

thanks Richie!

If anyone can post pics of the origonals that would be good!

Here you go, Taken off of my 81 KZ1. The smaller Tange sticker and intact seat mast decal are for the KZ1.
I'd check Jamie's site for eventide's repro decals, pretty much accurate for all years.

QuickSilver,

What year or serial number KZ-1 are you building? Color combo and parts set up, I hope you posts pics when complete!

GT3540,

Congrats on the deserved trophies for your Kuwahara Cruiser Cruiser yesterday, it was cool meeting you guys!

Aloha,

Mike

heres my 81 KZ-1:

That blue is awesome!

ringer...........
not only a great frameset but i like that view. NICE!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks

I have the same one but a complete survivor some of you guys gave me info on before. That one looks awesome and would love to vacation where ever the pic was taken. One day I will get to it...

My KZ1 race bike BITD was originally that blue until I had it repowdered white...

I was in SF last year.
Nice place.

Thanks guys, ringer thats a very nice example of a KZ-1!

I have the correct stickers coming, thanks for all your help guys!

Nice bike Ringer, talk to Jim or Eventide and he will set you up with the perfect set of stickers. He actually sent me his original stickers and a set of his own made ones and I was totally amazed how perfect they came out. You won't be dissapointed. I am going to use his on my new KZ-1 project bike. Cheers!!

Thanks again for the comments,

The stickers on my frame are the ones Jim made also, they are idenical to the originals I took off. Also, you can use my frame as an example of sticker placement, I measured exact locations of those stickers from the original.

Ringer, what's the serial # on yours? Mine is K1I0234, and my og stickers differ from yours. I'll post it up later in unrestored condition.

Mike yoda...good meeting you the other day and thanks!!!

Serial #T1A1840

heres a pic before it was repainted:

Ah, how appropriate to be a Kuwa collector and live in Japan-town!

Speaking of stickers, I know most of you guys have seen these before but for those that haven't here are some weird custom gold decals on my KZ1.
