Hi, I'm looking for a starter bike for my 16 yr olds. I'm looking at 70 -80's 250 to 350 cc bikes and I found a 81 or 82 KZ-305 twin. Anybody have any experience with these? What to look for and what to look out for? Thanks, Joe

PS I guess since the KZ-1000 is runing good, I secretly want another project. Don't tell wifey.;)

I have a couple of them, they are nice little bikes, good for a beginner and fairly peppy for a small bike. No real issues to watch out for but make sure you get the stock air cleaner with the bike. It is an EPA bike so it really needs the air cleaner in order to run correctly.
