Wanted to introduce myself, " thebull" left over from my Softball days. Been involved with Kawasaki's for many years, worked for a local Kawasaki Dealer years ago
so I got to test ride almost every model from the early 70's to the early 80's. Rode as a sponsored rider
in Motocross then moved to Drag Racing. Have owned an H1, H2, KZ1300, KX, many Z1's, currently own a ZX12R,Z1R,Z1R Turbo and still have my blown-injected drag racer although my drag racing days are long past. The Z1R TC is a project and will move this to the Forum for help. thebull

Picture ah, here's afew you my like. A few years ago I started a Company with Al Unser Jr, Alan Mertins building D-Sport Race Cars. The cars use a motorcycle engine,the D Class uses a 1000cc and the C Class used
a 1200cc. Most of the C's used a Yamaha R1 and the D used a ZX11 with a Muzzy Big block or a ZX12. The car was fantastic,we set track records almost everywhere we went,our highest finish at Nationals was a 3rd, we just didn't have the horsepower.Anyway,it was an enpensive Hobby and sold the Company a year ago and kept the Machine Shop. I also sponsor the local Collage FSAE Team
who build a similar car each year and compete with other Collages. They are restricted to using a 600cc motorcycle motor. We help them machining parts and waterjet cutting, in return they muck out our waterjet tanks. I don't know how many pictures I can attach, I'll try for three.thebull
