The most interesting bike in the place. a Koslow. I and most everyone else hade never heard of it, Outside pushrods and exposed tappets. Two exhausts per cylinder. Two carbs and each with a different style of Air filter and manifold. The owner seemd to have had great fun putting it together. Notice the bicycle pedal on the kickstarter

And from the other side the crazy air filter. The gearchange is stickshift and if you can spot it just to the left of the gastank the grip is a brass tap (faucet handle ?)

The speedo goes up to a whopping 60mph !!

Last one...a lovely old triple in pristine condition.
Photo taken the parking lot. In fact the parking lot was just as interesting as inside the grounds.

A pity but I did'nt get to meet up with any KZR people.

Maybe next year we will be better organised.

Thanks for the cool photos. :)

The CB550 and the ole Kaw triple are gorgeous if anyone's asking me. :whistle:

Looks like you had a nice day...too bad no meet up with KZR folk although we can be an elusive bunch. :laugh:

Great pix! I would have loved to have been there. I know a lot of buddies discussed going, but I had a Fathers Day dinner to go to today. :(

If you can't eat it or hump it,
Piss on it and walk away!
