Intro: KZ650 was my 1st streetbike

Hi to all. Glad to be onboard!

Just bought a 1978 KZ650 with under 10,000 miles. Almost identical to the one I bought new in 1979. So I've been riding for about 30 years now. Have had a lot of bikes. Two of my other favorites were my 1975 H2 Mach IV, and my 2001 ZX6R. I'm also currently restoring a 1979 Moto Guzzi Lemans.

Here's a photo of my 'new' one...

Cheers, AL

Pretty little 650 you got there. Don't change a thing. Well except the oil, tires occasionally, spark plugs, brake pads, but then you know that. Welcome. Nice bikes.

Thanks, that Guzzi means a lot to me! Can't wait to have her on the road. Maybe I'll have her ready by next Summer?
