Half the old kzs I pick up seem to be black, the rest are usually green. I would run the blue honestly. Problem with lighter colors is they look a little bare without emblems or stripes or something

The paint looks good with the stripes.

Bike looks better with the spokes than it would with the abe wheels too

I totally agree with the original paint sentiment. Original is fine for purists and collectors, but what fun is it if all bikes look alike???...BORING! lol. Looking good. ...................Mike

Nice job! Looks like a stock resto besides the paint? Great color too.

Nice ride Barry. Always liked the 4-2 sidewinder pipe look but never had a chance to use them on a bike of my own to know how they are performance-wise. Wld love to hear how they sound and perform. Did you add them? ......................Mike
