Greetings, folks!
Back in the day I bought a brand new 1978 KZ400 off the dealer floor in Petoskey, Michigan. I have always missed that bike and last week came across a 1981 KZ440 nearby. It needs some work. I will keep you posted and will be picking appropriate brains for help while I get this cleaned up and ready to ride this summer.

Happy Tuesday!

I'd like to extend an Arizona sized welcome to our corner of the WWW. Lots of riders had ne of those bikes back in the day. Closest I got was an 80's KZ 440. Still a fine commuter, back roads exploring bike. Didn't have it long though.

I don't have a plan and I'm sticken' to it! '77 KZ 650 / 750 GPz custom project in progress
