KZR Chicago Chapter.

Well not to ruffle any feathers, even though I feel like a plucked chicken
Really though, I had planned to ask about the show..
Whats the chance's of finding KZ parts there?
Will it just be late model stuff or will there be
any vendors for our vintage bikes?
Havent been to the bike show in years.

Anyone want to hang some for sale flyers for me? Will cut you in if it sells!

Genius, it's just a bit of jest. Ball busting. I just have noticed a few funny posts that people put up and have read a lot of posts about riding but have yet to see any of these guys out and about. Well, the show has a back area where you can find many independant sellers of "stuff" so it's anyone's guess but it is a good place to go to make a few connections that may lead to other connections. I'll be there with my friend who you could ask and if anyone would know about sources it would be him.

I hear ya, what time you plan on being at the show?
I kinda like to think I'm some sort of a rider...
Rode all over the mid-west along with running the Dragon :woohoo:
I know I'm late to the game, just bought 2 KZ1000's 80LTD & 81CSR
I'll surely keep the LTD road worthy until the CSR is done.

Can anyone recommend a good place for powder coating & chrome plating south of the city.
Good clean work is a must..

North side would be fine for me, too. I have a couple of fenders to re-chrome and I haven't found a local place yet.

All right. You called me out. But seriously, I want to do the Monterey ride this year. We need to hook up somehow. I really wish I could make the show this weekend, but I can't. PM me, Sax....we need to make sure we get this rolling for summer. Or I'll PM you my cell.

I am going to the show and I am a regular guy.

BTW Genius, I will be blasting and then powdercoating my old dirtbike soon. I don't have the powder coater info at this moment but will soon. Chroming I am not into so not sure but go to the show and someone there can direct you.

PS: Party after the Bike Show this Saturday at my house. Saxjonz and about 7 other like minded hooligans will be there. :woohoo:

Now I'm just more pissed that I can't make it. Thanks, Forrest.

You are welcome DDub. We will toast one in your honor.
Psst! You can always sneek out later that evening. Just sayin.

Normally, yes. But it's a 3-4 hour trip each way for me...

My brother does live in Wheaton, though, and we went to Elementary in West Chi. I'll have to make it down sometime.

Ok, Seeing how I'm an early bird, I'll be at the show...early.
By all means say HEY if ya see me!
Somewhat of a tall guy, I'll be wearing a Black Hooded Sweater
that has BULLITT in red letters on the back.
Yes I have a Bullitt Mustang
