1980 KZ1000B4 LTD (Resurrection)

grinder,
have you priced paint job's like your looking for in your area????
if nobody is reasonable for really nice job's in your area??
i live in tulsa,okla. have a custom bike painter/artist here that is very reasonable. he's semi retired and just doing paint work now because he enjoy's doing it. he can do anything,stock,custom candie's,airbrush,striping etc.....
he just did my 76ltd trim...
he could do anything you might want. pm me if you want a phone##
looking forward to more pic's...

this is why im partial to the KZs this is me teaching my wife to ride a 1978 KZ650 , way back in 1979 she was a natural i had just rode that bike from Charleston SC to Austin TX only stoping for gass! great days!!!!!!

didnt have any thing to post about the LTD so a little history

Hey Grinder . Looks like my C3 there although the black lower fork legs and round front master cylinder confuse me a bit .Time to get started on the new bike yet ?

C3

was a C3 .. but was stolen i aquired from insurance co. and put it back together. gave it to my younger brother when i was transfered.I was in the navy at the time.

Hello all
its been raining here for the last three days. havent done much did get some reasearch done im the 3 owner. has been in south carolina the entire time.

checked the valve clearances they all are in spec

and i think the o ring around the timing chain area head gasket area, has failed, there seams to be an oil leak in the front of the head in that area. not weaping but drips oil when i let it idle, looks like the head has to come off.

should i replace the timing chain and the guides? while head is off?

try retorqing head,check tach drive before pulling head.

Thx for the info

ill try that first
the tac drive is dry no oil at all
