Aloha from the Big Island.....

17 Feb 2016 21:08

Doing a Restoration on a KZ900......

Been riding for 37 years. Love to ride on or off road.

Worked in the motorcycle industry at an OEM level for most my life, but I don't know a damn thing.

1979 CBX1000, 2000 ZRX1100, 1974 Yam DT250A, 1975 CR125 Elsinore, Road King, KTM 250 XC-W, 2008 GasGas 280TXT PRO trials.....oh, and a 400cc scooter to get me to the beach!

Don't know a thing? Looks to me like you know several important things, like--

KZ = cool.
ZRX = cool+
How to remove parts from a KZ.
Removing parts from a KZ is more fun on a lift than on the floor.

Welcome to the asylum :silly:

1981 KZ1000 LTD awaiting resurrection
2000 ZRX1100 not ridden enough
