Its alive! was created by Samwell
This is an update to my ongoing kz1000 project. I've been rebuilding it this past winter to get it mechanically sound. So far thanks to Rdeline cycle and Z1 Enterprises for supplying parts and to Wired George for rebuilding the carbs.


The motor is buttoned back together, once I sorted out the fuel valve rebuild kit and wired the new coils properly. it fired right up!

Next on the list:
New chain/sprockets and headlight to get it rolling and legal. Once I'm happy with its sate of tune, I'll do some much needed cosmetic work and when my wife's not looking, the turbo kit.

Sam! I realize that you are a relatively new guy (23 posts), but don't you know it is against forum rules to post a topic about a Kaw brought back to life, but WITHOUT PICS?
Geesh!
Seriously man. Congratulations. I look forward to the pics and updates.B)
