Hello

Hello there, I have had a KZ650F1 now for a few months. It had been stored a long time (I was told 13 years, it had 12k miles on the clock) and I have taken much knowledge from you guys already to get it to a better place. I've been doing 30 miles a day probably on average 4 days a week and it has been very much a running project until now - but that's for another post.

So - hello, happy new year, and thank you for all previous advice.

(Pictures when I clean it, maybe.)

Thanks for the welcome.

It's blue, stock paint, stock nearly everything as far as I can tell. In fact it's so stock that I removed the original front brake line to replace it with braided, they have dates on them and this one was 11/79. The brake fluid was brown jelly (but it still stopped, eventually) - one of the reasons I believe the long storage wasn't bull.

Um, maybe I'll clean it actually - then post pictures, our roads haven't been salted yet and the build up of grime is protective isn't it? :)

Dirty pictures just don't seem appropriate.

Will be posting elsewhere soon due to a sudden change in running condition. ie not.
