Hey All,

Just bought a 1980 KZ750 set up for vintage racing.

Currently racing a 76 Honda CB550 in both VRRA and RACE Super Series here in Canada.

I picked up the KZ750 cause years back I rode a GPZ750 and loved it. The KZ is need of some tlc to get it to the point I want it to look like a professional put her together, something to be proud of.

Anyone have a shop manual in pdf form they would like to share with me ?

Once I got some pics I'll post them.

Anyway, Hello to all

Welcome from Sudbury.

We have 5 or 6 members up here on Kzrider. I was hoping to make it up the the North Bay VRRA races last weekend but had to get caught up with some work-related crap so I can pay the bills to ride my bike:)

Since you are a VRRA racer you probably know Steve Darlington, a fellow vintage Kz racer who checks in here occaisionally.

If we can lend a hand give us a shout.

The VRRA Runway Romp at North Bay was a blast, aside from the wind and rain Friday the weekend.

We had a record number of wipe outs, but I don't think there was anyone hurt serious.

I know Steve Darlington, I talk to him on Sunday and he offered up his services.

Much thanks for the manual
