Hey Jake, Welcome to KZR!My first street bike was a 1987 Suzuki LS 650, actually I still have it but probably not for long. I still enjoy that bike, but the 78 Z1R I just got is making it very easy to let it go.
Oh, this is my first post, so it's a bit of an introduction also.

I don't miss it, but I would love to have it back now that I can actually afford to fix it properly!
I sold it and bought a Triumph 500 Speed Twin - I loved that bike and do wish I still owned it!

The next one was a ZXR400 tricked up and paid for by the compensation from the KMX125. Only problem was I had to learn to walk again then wait for the compo to come before I could buy it, it took four years. Sound bike and could keep up and out handle all the big boys.
My bike is a 1981 KZ750E with Honda VFR400 NC30 single sided swingarm and Aprilia RS125GP rear subframe and seat pods, engine in more pieces than my mind
