My new to me 75 KZ1000......

I know. Don't yell at me yet.

CL ad for a 75 1000. Obviously didn't seem right. My dad went to look at it and it is a 75. Got the 900 motor in it. Apparently a friend died and left it to this guy. He's a Harley guy. Had no use for it. Didn't know anything about it except "that he had it apart and but a big cam kit in it. It was really really fast."

Not really sure what we are going to do with it yet. I mainly want the motor. Since dad and I both have 900 ltd's, we figure we have some needed parts and some we may not need. May end up just being a project or a parts bike. Not really sure yet. The guy who died signed the title over to the guy we got it from. He nevertitled it in his name. Going down ttithe DMV tomorrow to see how we can do that deal first. If nothing else, might have a parts bike. Who knows. Anyway, I'll try to post the 2 pictures from the CL ad. That's all I got right now.

Not to be that guy, but if it is a 75 and has the matching motor and a title its a z1 and those things are starting to fetch some money and be worth saving

Just my 2 cents

would totally suck to part it out :sick: .

imho,

That's why I said we wasn't sure yet. On the way there it was all about what we needed off of it. But once we got there and saw it and realized it was a 75, that's when the thought of a project came up. Not really sure what direction it is going to go yet. We weren't even really looking for a project, but we didn't want to just let it go to junk. The guy was moving out of state and was going to junk it. So, now we are going to see about the title and go from there. Hopefully, the title is no big deal and we can go on down the road and figure out what we are going to do with it. If the title is easily obtained, it will more than likely stay as a whole bike.

Just by looking around on it and from what the guy told us about it, I'm wondering what's inside the motor. The guy said big cam kit and that's all he knew. Its obviously been apart at some point and it has a rev limiter on it with electronic ignition. Seems to sit really low also. At least compared to our 900 ltd's. Apparently the guy was really into stop light to stop light. So I guess we will see.

Ask your local used car lots, you know the types, the kinda iffy ones theyll tell you how to get it titled to you

Didn't even think of that. Might have to look into it if they tell me its going to be a problem.
