hey everyone!
16 Jun 2006 12:28
Hey, my name is Chad, I'm 21, and I've got a 1983 KZ750 LTD.
my dad just bought a new bike, so I get his old one.
Since I've had it, I've painted the gas tank myself, not that bad for it being a spray-paint paintjob.
all thats left is putting the emblems back on, but I cant seem to find the screws...oops!
but here are a few pictures.
thanks for looking!

my dad got a new VTX1800 honda and wow, what a fast cruiser.
but it runs ok, knocks something on idle, and rattles something else around 4k rpms....maybe something with the timing, who knows.
but its ok, has 10,800 miles on it.
the silver paint is prett flaky, its made for wheels actually. I thought I would use it since I like the color,(its more of a gunmetal color in person), and I wouldnt have to primer, since the tank was in perfect condition before.
