Alright so im new here.. Names Leroy... Just a month ago now i was working for a repo company and picked up two motorcycles from the back of our yard for 25 bucks! they are both 1981 kz's... ones a 550 and one 750...

With just minor work the 550 fired right up so i decided to chop it out and make it look like something only someone named Leroy would ride :)

Anyways im gonna post lots of pics and keep yall posted with my progress, Im sure with ur combined infinite knowledge ill have an awesome project when im done...

so anyways glad to be here and by tomorrow ill have stock pics up to show yall what im workin with!
