Hey guys

Hope there is a later model contingency here for me and my beloved '84 GPz1100-A2!

Would you believe I acquired this bike 10 yrs ago, rode it once, and it died enroute (pumped oil out of crankcase vent as I recall)to my buddies, so I pushed it about 2-3 miles to his house. I got it home where I put a wiseco 1168 kit on it and had the head ported a little. Put it back together but it wouldn't fire up. I think I had the cams backwards (same cam In & Ex), and my Clymer was confusing or wrong. Shelved it to move on to one of my CBX's which I was hot for at the time.

Did the same thing to my CBX, wiseco, ported heads, cams, carbs, pipe, and again wouldn't fire. Shelved it about 10 yrs, bought a 'Busa.
8 yrs later missed the vintage bikes, so I got the (4) cams right on the CBX. Sold the 'Busa. Now I'm back onto the Kawi. Replaced some bent valves and it fired right up (after some cleaning, purging, & testing, etc). Got to love that DFI! I hope to get some feed back on how to tweak an A2 DFI here.

My GPz is a mess, and needs to be completely repainted. I'm finishing the mechanicals first. Might be done this month with any luck.

I remember it was between a red GPz back, and my '83 GS1100ES, which I bought instead, cause it was cheaper. Loved both bikes, now I have them both.

Welcome to KZR, cool story glad you came back to Kawi's. We require pictures, doesn't matter how it looks.

You got it, I'll try and pull one out of my cell tomorrow.

thanks

James, welcome to KZR. That's quite a nice collection you've got there. I've always wanted one of those later GS1100s, you lucky dog.
Hope your KZ project works out the way you want.
