I just took delivery of my fathers `82 KZ 1100

I just brought home my fathers old `82 KZ 1100. It has been sitting in a shed for a few years. The last inspection was 2000. The motor was rebuilt and he only put maybe 1k on it. The carbs were rebuilt shortly after that. It also has the Vetter fairng and trunk which I want to sell.

The carbs were really gunked up. I will post those questions in proper section.

I currently own an`02 Ducati Monster 750 which is my baby

Clicking on photo converts to another photo (likely the originally intended photo).

:unsure: Maybe something to do with tinypic.com used when posting?

Good Luck! :)

Hi Mookieo2, Welcome to KZR. :) and good luck with your bike.

Sorry your having trouble loading the pics. I tried to fix them for you but didn't have much luck. I'll send a message to Stein, the site owner and let him know about this glitch.

In the mean time I'll try loading them for you
