Hand me down 83 KZ1100A3
03 Oct 2022 20:31 - 04 Oct 2022 06:05
Hello!
Thanks for adding me. Attached is an image of my "new" to me KZ1100A3. My father bought this bike around 15 years ago because it was a bike that he owned when he was in college. He restored it from top to bottom, and has cared for it ever since. For the better part of the last 7 or so years it has been a show piece in his shop, and I was generally the only one to ride it. It hates the cold, needs the carbs rebuilt, and has few class 1 oil leaks but other than that it runs great. I plan on replacing the Head gasket, the shifter seal, fork seals, and rebuilding the carbs during the winter. Thank you in advance.
