=11.0ptHi Everyone, very happy to be a member of this forum!  Have recently acquired a ’77 KZ1000A1 that was stored in a barn for ~20 years, so it hasn’t run in a long time. Shows ~5K on the clock and peg wear, chain, etc. seems to support this.  Needs a lot of work, parts, and help!  First bike (in 1973) was a 1970 Triumph 500 Trophy Trail, and that led to many bikes after i.e. Triumph, BSA and Yamaha 650’s, CB750, Z1B and KZ900, XS1100 (a few dirt bikes thrown-in too), FJ1100, RD350 and FZ750. Rebuilt from the ground up the FJ1100 and FZ750.  Latter day bikes: Triumph Tiger 955i, Kaw ZRX1200R and Yam Tracer 900.  Some rebuilt cars in there too i.e. ’66 L72 Corvette, ’71 L48 Corvette and a ’73 Z-28. I’m in awe of all y’all that have many bikes at once…I could never handle that except for a short time in the ‘80’s when I had 2-4 bikes at a time.  Live in Georgetown TX.
