Hello from Arkansas
12 Apr 2018 17:20
Hi everyone, Just got me my first ever kz
not a huge fan of the lightning/flames or whatever they are on the tank and side cover, so i have snagged up a tank and new side covers off ebay with the original paint/pinstripes also grabbed the appropriate rear lights/fender.
The bike will only start by push ( starter just spins and makes a funny noise) i assume after reading that this is probably a starter clutch issue??
The speed and acceleration of this little bike really supersized me , the PO said he added some performance upgrades like better sprocket and chain, this little bugger will flat out move :lol: I do not have much experience with motorcycles, so hope you all do not mind if i ask a few technical questions.
anyways glad to be here!
