just purchased an 1982 KZ1000 LTD (see avatar)
23,000 mi.
Good paint, chrome & tires.
Not started for 5 years.
Took a jump Box.. engine cranks over with good spark from Excel coils.
Oil leak from underside.. will degrease and source location once running.
Tank and carbs were drained when parked.. Tank is rust free..
Needs new exhaust.
Pulled carbs.. dry and all jets clear..

Congratulations for finding such a nice example.
If you do not already own one, you can download a factory service manual from KZR. The manuals are under the Articles tab.
