1975 KZ 900 , ZRX Swingarm, 89 GSXR front end

Who of you has purchased from Wired George??

I am thinking about a rebuilt set of carbs, the backlog looks long and looming, but if he motors through it at a reasonable pace I can live with waiting.


The current carbs are getting tough to get set - up it is at a shop, and they appear to be doing the right things, with some degree of frustration.

Seems like purchasing a set of pre tuned carbs would be the set-up. CV carbs would suit the purpose of the bike, it will not be a hot-rod, I just want to tour the West Coast on it.

I am selling.

Anyone interested, PM me.

Just tired.

Sorry to hear that. I have enjoyed the thread greatly. It is a beautiful bike and I hope you are selling because you want to and not out of frustration. I know what happens when you sell out of frustration.... Perhaps we can help you figure out what the issue(s) are so maybe you can start to enjoy it again?

Good luck with what ever decision you make.

Thank you,

I am still pondering things. I just spent 45 minutes looking at my own thread, I don't know if I can sell, there is just too much work and heart poured into this thing.

watching this thing roll off with someone else will rip your guts out.

you would regret it before they could get around the corner.

take some time away if needed,
if not go bang your head up against the damn thing until you figure out how to overcome your obstacle.

it would have to feel pretty crappy to not see it through now,

forever,

Everytime you think about it,

you would just wanna puke.

thats my.02 fwiw,

Take a step back, take a deep breath and exhale slowly.

i would hate for u to do anything rash, then regret it later.
just give it a rest for a while and rethink it later.

You have done a fantastic job , and u r sooooo close.
u cant imagine the satisfaction u will feel when this bike finally runs.
hang in there.

The Project has been on hold for long enough.

Jetting... well there is a dynajet kit to take care of that.

Paperwork for title has been taken care of. I am ready to dig in and take it the last mile. In the last couple of months I have been restoring an 86 GSXR 750 for my neighbor, that project is almost done. Soon as I deliver the GIXXER to California... the KZ will be up and on the bench again.

Thats great news. i'm glad u decided to see it through.
Good luck.

Woot! I'd have threatened you with causing another heart attack if you sold it unfinished and unridden. Troy341

Troy Troy Troy !!!

I am so glad you are up and running again, thought it was close there for a bit !!

Here is what is in front of the KZ...

Love the '86 GSXR's! My good friend bought a 750 in 1990...seemed like it was from space or something compared to my KZ. They are so cool looking.....old "slab sides".

I concur..
there was a brief time when I almost switched to the GiXXer movement.
