B) I don't care how much therapy any one else needs.:unsure:
I've been getting mine on the road with this bike for a full season now, and it is a work of art that is a treat to ride. I've put nine thousand miles on it so far this season and they have all been great.:laugh: Every one that stops to look at it seems to have some kind of fond memory that it brings back. I will definately change the color this winter, but I've decided to leave the rest pretty much the way it is. I like it, and that's all that matters.It's built like a tank and can crawl up your ass with a twist of the throttle like any good KZ1000 can.: :evil:

Hey DblHdr,

I've never been a lover of cop bikes probably because of my lack of simpatico with their operators, but let me be the first to separate the man/woman from the innocent, unknowing machine.

I like what you've got going on and laud your attempt to redeem the karma your machine may have accumulated.

Looking Good.

Bill

Being in Wisconsin we see very very few 1000P's around here, and being a fan of Stock i can't see why anyone would want to change that bike, it is perfect the way Kawasaki made it, i am going to wait a few years and get a 05' from that joint in Califonia and ride it back. i know thay are basically the same i just want the last aircooled KZ.

It's rare to see one Z1 KZ900 or 1000 at a Bike Night. I bet when you guys get together you have a great time. It would be great to have a KZRider ride. Set it up far in advance so we could get many together...Russ
