TOPIC:

I just picked up this ride from a friend, he was looking to buy a sportbike so I scored it for 1200 bucks! The only thing that I really need to do is have the rear wheel trued. The bike runs and rides awesome and is surprisingly peppy for a twin cylinder. The only changes i'm planning are making new stronger 1" lower stuts for the rear, a few painted parts, and some black header wrap. Maybe a custom seat this winter, but we will see. Enough talk, PICS!!!

1976 or 1977 motor, and what looks like a 1980 tank, and the master cylinder is off a later model as well (I think 80 or later).

Struts on it means you are much younger than me


Here are some pics of other 750 twins if you are interested.

Nice looking ride. My arse hurts just thinking about riding around with those struts though,,, .
One thing I would do though is put a fork brace on the front where the fender is missing, it may get a little squirrely on you on a washboard road. More pain for my arse,,

Thanks for the commetns guys. Yes i'm young, 22 to be exact. Can anyone tell me if this is the correct seat on this bike?

Yep, that's the correct seat, but if you plan to modify it I'll trade you one that needs recovered for that one

Heck, I'm such nice guy I'll even pay shipping for both

I do plan on modifying the seat to better flow with the body lines, along the lines of a corbin seat. do you have any pics of your seat?

Which seat do you want a pic of?

I have two or three 750 twin seats that need recovered, plus the one on my 79 750 twin that's starting to split along the seams.

Here's a pic of one of them, the others are stock seats and all have a stock seat pan.

Wow Steel I see Garage Floor .. What do you think the rear wheel is off of .. 1000 CSR ?

That pic is about two years old, you ought to see the place now, totally different!

Those wheels were actually KZ650 wheels, and they were on there when I bought the bike. I'm parting out that bike because the Title is messed up. I forgot who got those wheels, but it was someone else here (I don't sell 750 twin parts to anyone but KZR members).

I forgot to mention the mods on this bike. Kz650 swingarm, KZ1000 rear wheel with a 140 tire, 2-1 exhaust, custom clip-ons, lowered 2" in rear, 1" in front. I'll think abouth the seat swap a little and get back with you.

Cool bike! I could not commute to work every day on struts, that's fer sure!

Yeah, I did the fiber wrap on one of my bikes, and soon to be at least one more... I love the looks of it...

That is the first 750 twin i have ever seen in drag.
Usually they end up in Tracker or Cafe clothes.
I like the as is look my self dont change a thing.
