Good after noon from Evergreen State of Washington.  I just purchased a Kawasaki KZ1100, and im the 3rd owner - This will be my first bike in 35 years.... My last bike was a KLR600, ... before that was a Kawasaki 440 LTD and before that was a Kawasaki KE125.

im looking forward to getting on the road and feeling the wind!

ABSOLUTELY!!!   Give me a moment or two to get this beast running.... it was in storage for 6 years before i bought it last week.... and i had it started and running on Friday night (with 6 year old fuel).... however... it wont start now... I drained the tank and the carbs... and there was a bit of sediment and non floaters in the bottom of the bucket....so I am assuming the jets sucked up some debris and are currently plugged.... im not sure (the drained fuel was still clear and not yellowed... and didnt smell terribly bad).. but i will take the carbs off and have a peek this week.... 🙂   OH.. and after that... getting a permit and endorsement might be in order hahahahah
