Dropping in from Indiana

The name is Phil, just picked up a 1981 KZ650, pretty clean bike, looks to be all original, and picked it up with under 5,500 miles! This is also my FIRST bike, and I'm enjoying every minute of it!

On the drive home, my Trailblazer SS in background :)

Hoping to meet some new people, and learn more about the bike. Already have some questions I'm gonna be posting up soon :)

I just rode thru St. Joe last sunday with a few buddies.

I'd love to join in the clinic, but I got some stuff to tend to this weekend, maybe next time tho, thanks for the offer!

Next time we go ride, I'll let ya know, we usually ride up 1 to Hamilton, then over to Busco, then back to Ft. Wayne, good 100 mile cruise for us
