My first bike
31 Jul 2012 21:26
Hey there, names Justin. Just bought my first bike ever today. Been scanning cl for months and found this 82 kz550 for $600!! This was a steal!! Everything is perfect except the rectifier needs to be replaced. The engine turns over and nearly starts but it's only a $50-100 fix. Plan on turning it into a cafe style bike. I'm stoked I found this forum. I know a lot about cars but like I said this ismy first bike so I'll be spending a lot of time searching this place lol. Man am I excited!! Well just saying hey
