New guy in South Alabama with a cafe project

Hey everyone I just wanted to introduce myself here. I've been creeping the sight for a few weeks now and just decided to join. I purchased a 79 KZ650 B3 a little over a month ago for $250. The bike wasnt running and was rough but it was all there. I'm trying to make this a quick and cheap cafe build because I am deploying in February and want to enjoy some riding before then. The bike is now running and only lacking a few parts to make it ridable so I've made some good progress. I have some extra original parts I'll post up in the proper section in a bit.

A little about me. I'm 26 and originally from Wester Pennsylvania. I moved to Mobile, AL almost 3 years ago after i graduated from college. I am in the Pennsylvania Army National Guard and will be deploying in February for most of the year. I grew up on dirt bikes and converted to sport bikes when I went to college. The sportbike crowd is different down here and I'm not interested in chroming and stretching everything so I decided to build a cafe racer to be different. I want to say thanks ahead of time for all the help I'm sure will be provided in the coming weeks and months.

Welcome on the site, looking forward to seeing the project. Lots of good support here for sure..
