Sounds like you have a nice original bike. I just got done turning my 1st street bike i bought a couple years ago into a hard tail bobber. It is a 76 kz 400d, custom struts, solo seat, no fenders and so on. Cant wait to see pics of your bike and chat with ya. Peace, Jim

I would like to get one!
I've got a 750, and my concours, but would like a 400 for gas mileage and running out to the lakes on gravel roads.
I think a 400 would be good for that. One is for sale, I just have to scrape up the cash and go 300mi. round trip.
Hopefully it will happen.
Welcome!
