Hi there I'm a Kawasaki noob from Vancouver Island.I just sealed a deal for a 82 GPZ750 project bike.I'm a Suzuki guy and have doe a couple of those over the last few years www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?t=161477 and the follow on www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?t=175660 also doing this www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?t=176156
As you can see I'm no novice at bringing what most would see as a piece of junk back from the dead.So here is the bike that brought me here:

Welcome to KZR...nice choice on a restoration...parts are readily available and there is some model interchangeability :)

Thanks I've always liked the GPZ since they came out.Honestly I'd rather have a 550 but this 750 is more than an OK second place.Not to many project bikes in the area this winter that got my interest.On a whim I emailed this old posting thinking it was gone,so happy it wasn't!
