Ok, hopefully the pics will load, anyway's this is my 78 Kz650:woohoo: . I just got it a couple of day's ago for $600 bucks off Craig's list. Bike is 100 percent complete,it's got a new clutch cable, new seat, new turn signals, new shocks,new pods, and the guy I bought it from rode it over to my house to deliver it,so yeah, it even has current plates and registration. I have some plans for this thing and will be needing help from all you experienced guys

Right click the arrow over the pic you want to resize. A menu will come up with options. Click open with paint. On the menu click on image.Click on resize/skew. Select 505 and see if that works for you. I use 53%. If the size is right,checking the size by clicking, image/attribets. click the x in the top right of screen. you have a choice of save/not save. Click save and the pic will be resized.


I think. I'm not awake. Roy

YEEEAAHH!!! SWEEEET!

Here's some more. I've already stripped a few things off of it, going for that sleek, streamlined look. I already know that I want to do a fork/swingarm conversion, juice the motor up a smidge, and add a few other cool bits here and there. Feel free to give suggestions/advice

Thanks, I dig'em too, my first bike was a 82 kz650, got it when I was 18 ( 31 now ) and rode the piss out of it. I haven't had a bike or ridden for about five years so I was stoked to throw a leg over this bad boy and hit the streets. I've actually only gone up and down the block a few times ( need to buy a helmet, It's the law here in Nebraska ), but I had a dumb grin on my face the whole time which I know you guys will understand:P

Welcome to KZR, nice 650 you scored for $600. That has to be the deal of the century. The sky is the limit on what can be done to a good old 650.
