I really suck at introductions so bear with me here. I'm Goldie, I'm Canadian, I'm new to motorcycles. My dad got his kz750 brand new for Christmas as a kid, unfortunately it has been sitting since 1992 in not very ideal conditions... We spoke about rebuilding it for years and trying to get it running. Yesterday on a whim, I went on an internet search to find parts bikes and parts to rebuild his bike and found a deal, so we loaded them up on a trailer and hauled them home.
So now we've got 3 '77 kz750 twins....
1 parts bike (missing mostly electrical and wear and tear stuff but has all the engine components)
my dad's original one
and the new red one
I'm very new to motorcycles in general and also have a Honda C70 Passport that has been through multiple family members.
My husband owns a machine shop and we're no strangers to 4 wheeled monsters. We've got a bunch of cars but our pride and joys are our 2 1992 Nissan Skyline GTRs and my 1992 Suzuki Alto Works.

Anyways I'll be poking around, will post photos of the restoration here and there of the two we intend to have rolling this summer. I'm so glad there's still an active and thriving community here supporting these classics :)
