Hi from the UK

Hello, discovered this site last week, been riding for about 24 years now, mostly Harley but had a lot of Kawasaki's too. Just about to finish a rebuild on my Z650, there is a picture I've put on the gallery but it's moved on a lot since that was taken. Looking forward to the good weather coming as it's a bit cold in Yorkshire, UK at the minute. I'm on my third z650 now but this one is for keeps as I regretted selling the others. Speak to you all soon.

The whole bike will be coming up soon, just a few minor jobs to finish and then a polish, just managed to get a second hand deep braced aluminium swinging arm so that's to fit too now. Will get a better picture uploaded as the frame looks orange in that pic but it is red, possibly just down to the powder coating.
