Old guy new to your forum

Hi fellas. My name is Bert, and I just got another motorcycle. My friends tell me I have a problem with too many bikes. I tell them maybe I have too many friends.
Never had a Kawasaki before! This is a 1975 model so that makes it a Z1B. Right? And it looks like I'm in the right place! I'm hoping you all will be able to give me an occasional nudge in the right direction getting this delightful old bike up and running.
I look forward to seeing everybody else's projects, and getting going on my own!
Cheers!

Welcome from the UK, looks like a pretty "together" starting point. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it
