Hello!

I recently purchased a KZ1000 Police in Wendover, Nevada. I'm working on getting it ready to ride and looking forward to hearing from all of you knowledgeable people!

Thanks for the welcome!

I grew up on a farm and did a lot of riding there on a Yamaha enduro 80. I got my motorcycle licence when I was about 26.

I've really wanted a street bike for about 20 years. I remembered overhearing a conversation where a biker talked about riding a Kawasaki every day while working at a HD dealership. I thought if that bike was good enough for a biker it should be good enough for me!

I recently took a three day motorcycle safety course and am excited to ride my KZP!
