Hello from Florida

Hello, a little bit about my self. I've been in to motorcycles my entire life and like all makes but specifically Kawasaki. My 1st was a kawi mc1 90 and that's where it all started. My loyalty lies with 2 strokes but have owned many z1s and kzs from the kz 200 up. I have parted with a lot of my bikes and still have a 74 Z1 900 turbo, 78 Z1R, 2 H2's, 69 Kawasaki A7 350, 93 fxdwg hd. And still own my 1st street bike 75 Suzuki T500. I've owned my 72 H2 for about 26 years. I've been in auto paint and body since 15 and I'm 46 now. I'm also an avid drag racer. Had many drag bikes and have been out of it about 10 years and looking to go another round if my back can take it.....lol

Yes, welcome! At first I thought you might be the "gary larson" from the parts warehouse. Then I see your age.
There are a couple of drag racer fans here. I gave it up 16-17 years ago.
That's all I ever did straight line racing, streets and the strip.

Went thru 25 of these in 40 yrs.
I SOLD OUT! THE KAW BARN IS EMPTY.
More room for The Old Girl, Harley 75 FLH Electra Glide,
