Hi Everyone,
I am currently restoring my KZ and souping it up a bit, so I figured it would be a good idea to join the forum here. I currently have the bike down to the frame, with only the suspesion/wheels/brakes left to remove. I also have the head and block removed from the motor and will be installing some Wiesco 10.25 to 1 pistons after i get some machine work done on the head, some dyna 3 ohm coils, and an electronic ignition. I would also like to install an oil cooler but i need to do more research as to how to do it.

I am 25 years old and this bike is my first. I have been riding for about 3-4 years now. It was given to me by my dad who has owned it since the early 80's. It currently has about 41k miles on it.

Any advice is greatly appreciated, here are some pics!
