yes i know that its an 800, but i really thought that the 1500 would have the same parts or options.

specifically i was keen on the visored light bars, the windscreen and the solo seat- and it appears that this bike has been setup as a rigid as i cant see the shocks.[/quote]

800 and 1500 Windscreen and light bars may be interchangeable but the seat definatly isn't.

The 800 has a rear mono-shock suspension ~ the shock is underneath.

i was hoping to get some advice on where i can acquire these parts for a 1500..as im not having much luck finding them myself.

eBay is your friend but a lot of the accessory stuff is rare these days and if you can find what you're looking for, it will be expensive.  The Kawasaki Fire and Steel accessories were always ridiculously expensive and are even more expensive now.

Hi All - i have been mildly customising my bikes for some time and had an idea that if i purchased a drifter, i could snazzy it up with a solo seat, windscreen, light bar, and some new pipes..but now im not so sure and the bike is on its way.

i purchased a 1999 1500 and this link here is a pretty good example of what i'd envisioned.

maybe this isnt the right forum?..if not, where would be the place to go?

perhaps someone has done similar things to the bike in the link and could share?

Cheers,
Tim
