Hello from Norway

Hello all. Just bought a 1984? KZ550LTD with shaft drive for next to nothing. Looking forward to go through it and make it run again.

The seller did not have the keys for it at the time of purchase. He promised me he had them, and that he would send it to me later. Hopefully, he will!

At the moment, I just have a few pictures from the add...:

Has it been sitting? You might have to clean out the float bowls. Looks tits.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, it has been sitting for a while... Was last used during the summer of 2013. Will have a look on the carbs as soon as I get the the oportunity to work on it.

The bike is not as good looking as it is on the pictures, but it's not a totall heap, either. The pictures are old, I suspect.

:) It's said that there are more Norwegians outside Norway than 'home'. I guess we're not alone about that.
