Back to an old KZ

It's been 10 years since I've owned any type of KZ. I let my last 1000 go to the insurance company after being rearended in an accident. Bought a 99 ZRX the next month and haven't looked back. I picked up an 81 KZ550 while working in Texas that has been painted in ELR colors. Needs a fair amount of work.

I'll try to post up some picks of my current stable.
Looks like you have a great site.

Welcome back to the KS's. You will be surprised how much fun you've missed! I was off of my 650 for about two years messing with bigger bikes. I couldn't believe how much I missed the 650 when I got back to it.
