Just a note to say HI to everyone.

Hi everybody, I'm glad to have found a placed dedicated to the Kz world.
I've been riding since I was a teenager. I'm now an old man of 49. I've had a few different dirt bikes, a couple of old Honda 750 single cams, and then finally got addicted to Kawasaki products.

I've owned and ridden 2 750 inline 4 LTD's, a 1000 LTD, a couple of really cool 440s that I built, and then I got my first and fell in love with my 750 LTD Twins.

I've had 3 different ones, 2 which I rebuilt and sold to friends and the 1983 which I've road for over 10 years now and cling to like a child with a blanket.

Kawasaki released several 440s with a belt drive, but to my knowledge 1983 was the only year for it on the 750 Twin.

I have a lot of basic knowledge however I've never had any professional mechanical training.

I've come to share what I can from my limited data banks, and pick the brains of those around who are professionals. anyways, Hello everyone, and remember the shiny side goes up! :silly:

Thanks for all the warm welcomes folks.. I'm not real good at forums, but I uploaded what pictures I have into my gallery if anyone wants to take a peak.. if you can't see them there let me know and I'll post them here with links to photobucket or someplace else..

Sorry I've never been much of a picture guy, I don't have pics of all the different rides I've had over the years, I'm sure I have more someplace I'll try to dig them out and scan and post them later. :unsure:
