Welcome to the forum! Glad you got your dream bike. I did the same thing last year when I got my 1100.

Cincy is a great town, I always have fun when I visit. Chili, beer, & Bengals, it doesn't get much better. As a long-suffering Bungles fan, I appreciate it even more when they win!

Hey, bigkzfan, congrats on your score.
KZ1000's a great bike. You'll like the way it jumps out, even with a small twist on the throttle.
Pics when you can....

pics posted guys...my dream come true:lol:

Good to see another Cincy KZ!

What part of town are you in? I'm over on the northwest side in Fairfield, maybe we can catch a ride sometime on the KZ's!

An xs1100 huh? Would that be Bill by chance?

Sounds like a plan, I might be running my rally route this Saturday or Sunday if you want to tag along with me your more than welcome! There's a thread here on the board about it, just look for SWOKZ in the title.

Looks like it was very well cared-for.
