Default Easiest/cheapest bike to build?

Just curious. I want to put something together from scratch and am not too sure which way to lean. Don't have too much money, and would like something relatively simple that can be a side project since I'm occupied with school, the other bike, and etc. Ease of finding parts would be a plus too.


Just shoot some ideas here.

What kind of bike are you looking to build? Cruiser/sport bike?

Anything really, just something to do aside from my other project :-p. I'm thinking along the lines of something to just cruise on since I have a sportbike.

kawasaki KZs are cheap and lots of parts for them. the honda CBs are good sometimes but allso could have a hard time finding parts.. KZs in the 70s are kick start and are easy to wire. good luck and have fun with it .
