Hi Im Aaron and Im from MI. I just bought my first kz a 78 650 B2 for $100. It rides and runs but it looks kinda rough, the po bought it did all the mechanical and then found that he knew nothing about cosmetic resto. Im thinking a rat rod kinda look since its so close to a rat rod already.

Hi Aaron, great buy for $100 bucks. Doesn't look like it would take much to make it good looking. Ditch the seat and pick one up on eBay. A little paint goes a long way, so not much to invest to get a nice bike. An investment of a couple hundred would make your bike nice. Welcome to the forum, and ask questions if you need a hand with your KZ. Bob

Hi Aaron, welcome from another Michigan guy. Whereabouts are you? I'm in Kalamazoo. Check out the Michigan Rides thread

when you get a chance. Kinda nice to see a KZ around here that looks as bad as mine:silly: No offense, at least yours runs!
