Two-stroke air-cooled what the ???

Whats with my latest frankenbike concept then? Two-stroke and air-cooled and mono-shocking?
CrispyDX200 (KDX200) motardish frankenbiken? Cool-ish? Tank WRONG!
Spied an 1985 KDX200 on the local classifieds (actually an '83) for $300, so I mocked this up.
It's actually growing on me (like a fungus)! Any thoughts out there?

Crispy Fried Kawasaki KE175







The very top image is of a pair of KE175s advertised in my local classifieds, $250 for the pair. Add reads, make one bike from two? But will it run? Will take a drive down and take a look see. It would be nice to have a bike ready for the 'Distinguished Genteman's Vintage Bike Ride' on the 29th of September. It's not even three weeks away!!! First task would see if I could get it to run, get it looking tidy enough to register and get it registered, and then bolt up some parts from my DR400 vintage supermoto. Chrome guards front and rear, 16 inch wheels etc etc. If the bikes are worth buying, then I will definitely give it a crack! Stay tuned!
