Kawasaki KZ400 custom

Alex Patrocinio edits the Barcelona-based custom culture magazine El Diablo, and this is his bike. It was a 35-year-old UJM with a seized engine when Alex found it, but his friends at the custom shop Mad Crow Garage have turned it into a very smart street tracker. A select few mods have transformed the stance of the bike, particularly a cut rear frame with repositioned shock mounts. The engine was rebuilt, and a new battery box and wiring system were installed. That tight-fitting rear fender is a 5” Triumph unit, but the tank and bars are refurbished stock items. A rich, vintage-themed paint job is the icing on the cake, courtesy of Welok Studio and the Rocket 88 Hot Rod Speed Shop. Muy bonita.
