Hello from Los Angeles was created by Sixdog
Hello everyone...I picked up a 76 KZ900 basket case last August. I know it's a big project but that's what I like to do. Never owned a Kawasaki so this will be new to me. I had the frame, wheels and other parts powder coated so far and have been busy getting parts I am going to need on the build.

I will be hopefully asking plenty of questions and hopefully posting pics as I go. It's not going to be some high horsepower Z but just a nice running four.

BTW...I am looking for a Bassani pipe...I have one on my Katana and CB1100F. I know they are tough to find but if anyone has a Bassani they want to sell please let me know.

Hey, I'm from Los Angeles, too!

Where abouts in L.A. are you from?

I'm new to this forum and KZ's also.

Welcome, and your KZ build is looking like it has a great foundation already! Looking forward to see it progress.

Best,

Philip

Ok. You're about 40 minutes down the 405 freeway from me.

I live in the San Fernando Valley. Sylmar area.

Have you ever been to the Venice Vintage Motorcycle Club Rally? I went two years ago and it was pretty cool. Missed this year, but I'm sure I'll be there for next year's.

Best,

Philip
