Kawnut New Memeber

Hi all, I am new to the site & look forward to both sharing & receiving info. My first Kaw was a (175) 1970 model, then on to a (1970) Mach 1 (500), then 1972 H2 (750), then naturally I had to have a 900 . Bought it in early 1973. Started drag racing & won several events, while competing with the cars (run whatcha brung)days. Set (3) national records in the IDBA. Built my own engines it the back yard in a 10/12 metal shed.
On to present, I am now restoring a true 'barn find' (1982) GPZ 750. I had no idea how difficult & expensive this would be. HA!
I will hopefully be able to contribute to this site. Actually very excited to join. I will definitely need some assistance for hard to find parts.
Thanks to all for reading this, I hope this meets the requirement for being able to fully join the site.

Welcome

Welcome aboard Kawnut! Post a couple of pictures of where you are at with your build. I would also start a project thread under that section if you are interested in doing so. It helps others by sharing your knowledge and is a good place to get responses from the membership. Plus, we all enjoy flowing build threads. Thanks for joining!

Welcome Kawnut. You have an impressive past. I really like your eagerness to contribute. Good luck on the project.

Welcome. You are at the right place. I also have the R1 GPz which I have enjoyed since 2007. I hope you'll post quite a bit on the resto since I have a Wiseco 810 kit and a six speed tranny ready to go in my mine and could use the encouragement.

Welcome kawnut,you found the right place should you need help with the build,these guys know there kaws.
