Yes, what a find, looks really clean and original.

I love buying old bikes - such a buzz of excitement with both the risk of getting stung or getting something really nice. I could never get that feeling riding something new off the dealer's showroom.

Man you are a lucky guy to find a bike in that condition , if I were you I would also buy a lotto ticket as well.
I have a 1980 Kawasaki KZ750 Ltd. I bought new. I recently managed to get it out of my garage after 28 years and put it on the road again (2010). I feel like a kid all over again. Since I have acquired 3 78 KZ1000 Ltd, 1 1981 KZ1000 Ltd, and another 1980 KZ750 Ltd. Love the LTD's.

I did. Trying to keep it clean and pristine all the time, noticing every flaw. Dreading going back for the 500 mile check up and the $ involved. You can have it. After dropping it in a curve and a few boo boos, it didn't matter anymore. Then I had fun.

I don't even remember that bike. I think it was in my shed about 18 minutes before I sold it to same guy who bought this one from me. Both staying in the states for now
