77KZ650 Rebuild was created by 100,000 plus 650
I just found and registered on this site. Just want to note that everyone is very helpfull. I am rebuilding my 77 650. It is completely taken apart at this time. Just to reinforce the old 650 bullet proof motor. I have 109,000 miles on it and this is the first time she has been apart. Every spec. on the engine is still to print as us machine shop guys would say. Not one scratch in the cylinders. When I get done I will post some pictures as she will look better than new. Need help with a paint source. Super candy red.

Welcome aboard, lots of 650 guys here including me. We like pix in ALL stages of repair. Hose of Kolor should be a close match with their Candy Red. I've painted a few members bikes.

Wecome to the KZR nation "100,000 plus 650 ".

I've got the same bike and the same same colour... well it was originally... under the OP's pait job. :pinch:

I'm interested in going back to the original paint and strips so please keep us in the information loop as to colour supplier, number, results, cost, etc. Thanks.

BTW, could you add your year, model, and location to your signature. Its good for getting the best replies and its considered very friendly. :)

Best of success.
