Hey all,
Cool site.
Brand new here, so I figured I introduce myself.

I'm not new to bikes or builds, or wrenchin in general, but I'm new to working on or customizing Jap bikes.

My last project was a 72 triumph that I did a bunch of stuff to, before that I built a harley soft tail chopper.
Anyway, just picked up a '76 kz900, & I have some plans for customizing it a bit.
Now it's almost all stock, & in pretty good shape.
Here's a few pics of how it looks now.

Thanks Ryan.
After my little bio, I thought people might want to see may last project.
It's not a Kawasaki, so I hope it's allowed.

KZ does look good. Care to share your intentions with her? The Triumph is a piece of work. Bet ya got bugs in your armpits! :woohoo: While I like dem bobbers not fond of apes or hardtails although I can appreciate the work and the looks. Nice job! ;)

Take it from me cuz I found
If you leave it then somebody else is bound,
To find that treasure, that moment of pleasure,
When yours, it could have been.

Thanks.
No bugs in "the pits" :) Actually, that riding position is very comfy. Also, that Triumph is so light (at least 1/3 lighter than my KZ), that the soft tires & seat springs make for a nice ride.

As for my plans on the KZ, I am inspired by a bike I came across in the gallery of this site (I think), and will end up with a very similar look.
Hope the owner don't mind, if anyone knows anything about this particular bike or has any more pics, I'd appreciate the info.
Here's the bike:
