Kawasaki Wundapp
Here is the perfect example of what we do best at Blitz Motorcycles: take a personal memory of the owner of the machine and find a way to include it in the making process of the new bike to come.
When the owner of this ’01 Kawasaki W650 he had freshly bought as his first “adult” bike came to us, he mentioned his first thrills on a 2 wheelers were obtained on a Zundapp (KS Model).
We then “just ” had to find a Zundapp tank and find a way to adapt it on the existing frame.
“Et voilà!“, as we say in French.
