I Just bought a 77 650

Hi,
I just purchased a '77?? kz650, paid $650 has 36k miles or 136k?? I don't know much(nothing) about motorcycles. The bike looks pretty good starts right up. Wondering about a shop manual any good ones out there? I also need a r-side plate- any good vintag parts people out there?

Thanks for any help,

Jim

Here's a pic o' my purchase

Welcome to KZR! The 650 is a great bike. There are a lot of people here that can answer any questions you might have. Ebay would be a good place to search for manuals and a side cover.

Welcome. Nice looking 650. Looks to be a '77 C1.

Ebay, Z1 Enterprises, and here in the classifides are some sources for parts. As well as in the Links area, there are other suppliers.

The best manual you can get is a factory service manual (which can usually be found on ebay). A Clymer's manual has most of all the info you'll need, but the FSM has it all. Also, there's another forum dedicated to the kz650 over at www.kz650.info . A lot of great people here and over there (some on both like me). Welcome aboard and nice looking ride!!

Very nice looking 650 ya got there!

Welcome 2 da Zone Mr. Donut! Are you a cop?
:laugh:
BTW...My guess is that your bike is 36K miles, not 136K. It looks too good of condition to be over 36K. I have a '79 SR 650. They're great bikes and will go 136K if you take care of it. One guy on this site has over 160K on his 650, so we know thay are good bikes.

Nice to see another 650 here.
I'm curious to how you came with the name MR.DONUT

nice bike, looks like you got a good deal.
