Hi everyone, new to these forums but been lurking for awhile now.
Just recently scored a couple of old KZ1100A's.
I am in the process of going thru the A-2 at the moment as it need the least amount of work and borrowing a few bits from the A-1 until I get around to bringing that one back.

The tank is 5.6 gallons I believe.
The PO put a realtree camouflage vinyl wrap, which will be coming off.
I hate it lol.

I suppose the camo might work on a military style build.
Anyhow, welcome to the madhouse, Zen. There is no cure for this addiction, and it will likely empty your bank accounts, but it surely is a fine and pleasant misery.

When you get a chance could you take pics of the underside and mounts for the tank? I'd like to have 5 gallons.

Sure not a problem on the mounting pics. I guess I should start a project thread rather than spam this one with pics.
