Ok.

Now it's done.
If I wanted to go to a show with it who knows of some good stops on the west coast?

Does KZRider ever get together in the western U.S.?

Just sent a long e-mail to Cycle World to see if they are interested in photographing it.

I feel like I am auditioning for a movie part here... a little out of my league, BUT..if you never ask, you'll never find out.

Thank you!

I saw a post about gathering a KZ Rider rally.

Is this an annual event?

Closed mouths don't get fed. That's the kind of upgrade mod I like. There are a few here and this is one of the best. Good work.

A good day indeed. Award aside, I met so many good people. Very motivating.

With your bike as it is.....what the hell took first? Must have been a full on custom or something. Personally, I think your bike turned out fantastic.

1980 LTD (changed over the years), 1979 LTD (being rebuilt), 1977 KZ turbo and various KZ's in various states of build. KLX110

:laugh: What took first.

Well that is a loaded question. I would have been dissapointed but the first place guy lept telling me I should have won, and he meant it. The first place bike was some kind of steampunk theme, so the peopl voting especially those who were not into the building thing, such as wives and girlfriends really liked the bike that won.

The builder was a super cool guy that spent a couple hours talking to me and admiring the KZ.
