Hey everyone my name is Andy and im an Autobody Tech from Tennessee and im new here. I have a 1428 KZ dragbike that I run in the Pro E.T. class. I also have a 77 KZ1000 streetbike that I restored that is pretty much my daily rider. I love to work on and ride these old Kawasaki's.I build my own motors and pretty much do all of it besides the machine work. I do bodywork for a living so if anyone has any "body" related questions please dont hesitate to ask.Im glad to find a place like this dedicated to these old bikes.:)
