Hello from Norway!

Hey people! Im Mats from Norway. 27 years old and on my third bike now since last year

Just picked up this beauty which will get some mods soon to turn it into a cafe racer

I have alot of questions, but ill search the forum alot before i do that!

Welcome Matts, nice bike as is. To bad you could not find a bit more of a junker to turn into a Cafe Racer. Size should be great for it though.

Hi Mats and fellow countryman,

I've just finished a Café Racer of my own, and you might get some ideas from my thread:

kzrider.com/forum/11-projects/592367-83-...-cafe-racer-take-two

Just let me know if you have any questions

Thanks! Yeah i know the bike is too good, but the prize was not bad so i bought it.

Thanks, Tommy ill check it out

Im looking for rearsets, so is the frame the same on the 81 and 82 z500? I can only find sets for the 81.

Welcome! What part of Norway are you from?

Thanks! Im from the Oslo area.
