new guy here

Hello, although I am new to the kzrider forums, I am by no means new to KZ bikes. I'm from NYC, I have owned many KZ's from stock to drag. Here's the rundown:
1976 KZ400
1980 KZ750E
1982 KZ750 Ltd.
1982 GPz550
1983 GPz550
1979 KZ1000ST
1976 KZ900 drag bike
1982 KZ1100 spectre
and finally, 1984 KZ700A (current).
My last couple of bikes have been:
1985 Honda VF700F interceptor
1988 Yamaha FZR1000
1988 Yamaha TW200
and 1985 Yamaha FJ1100 (current)
I am also known to do a little dirt riding. I currently have a 1981 Yamaha it465. I also work in a motorcycle shop that specializes in 70's-80's bikes. Our website is: www.loudfastugly.com
The owner's daily ride is a 1981 KZ550 that he's owned since new.
We are currently rebuilding an engine on a 1982 KZ750E. Ray Mancini did all the machine shop work. We service KZ's, suzuki GS, honda CB, Yamaha XS, and other bikes of the era. We also sell parts and tools to those who wish to do their own work. I hope I can contribute some worthwhile information to the forum, so drop me a line if you have any specific questions, or just to chat.

Welcome to KZr kamikaze.


Looks like you've certainly had your share of Kaws!

Most of us have heard of Loud Fast and Ugly before (I fixed the link for you;)).
In fact, it's already listed in the Parts Links section here.

And before everyone badgers you, I need to let you know that we require pics of your bikes....the more the better! :whistle:

Good to see that you have recovered from the fire

Be sure to read the rules linked at the top, especially the part about commercial advertising, not that you are doing any, I just want you to be aware of it in case you missed it (and I'm trying to avoid more work for me )
