Welcome to Kzr. Your first tip: For parts? No need to ask, or you will be directed to www.z1enterprises.com or ask for Jeff or Wiregeorge. I have some bike cards here that show specs for old bikes like ours and yours was labelled at 125mph top speed!

Cool, another So Calif KZ rider! B)

Welcome to KZr Rick. :)

Like was stated, we're junkies for KZ/Z pics, regardless of their current condition.

Since KZr recently added a "projects forum", you can use that to post pics and list the entire build/resto of your bike. ;)

Hey man we only laugh WITH you..well mostly. But most of us have made stupid mistakes (me FOR SURE) so if we laugh it's because we already did it.
