Now's your chance! Reset the trip odometer to 0, and put the bike on eBay as NOS. Ed
Now there is an enterprising idea. However, while my bike looks great in pictures, anyone seeing it in person would recognize it as a daily rider.
To all, thanks for the thumbs-up from all KZRiders.

This is what I do for fun, not for work. It is art, with a little engineering thrown in.

Congratulations! 100K young and still ticking. Looks great. 105 mph is way impressive for a centenarian but be cool, there is always 200K to look forward too.
Best of success.

Did you ever get around to the Sunday morning family pancakes and syrup thing?

Bill, yes I did, and the syrup was a big hit. I believe we just openned the last can over the holidays. That syrup is the real thing. I am now spoiled for anything less.
For those wondering what Bill and I are going on about, I responded to Bill's plea for a set of NOS grab handles for his KZ650, and he traded me four tins of real maple syrup in return. That stuff is worth its weight in gold.
