76 KZ900, I think an LTD based on the frame #, B model.

Not running currently, I suspect fuel issues.

Stock motor: that I intend to rebuild about a 10 sec bike would be nice!
Stock frame that I'd like to stretch a little And lower.

would like to tear down, update front end slightly (mainly brakes),
maybe new rims, had bad experience with old spokes
rear brakes, seat, and repaint

need decals, maybe a good place for rebuild on motor and recommendations for bore kits.

Thanks

id say to get it running 1st and get the brakes and suspension issues figured out 1st before you start reaching the 10s a stock 900 motor is plenty to get ya in trouble with a stock chassis,baby steps baby steps!:P that way ya dont got the big shock of what it all costs in one shot!;)

I'm on the east side in Painesville. I don't know of anyone locally building the older engines anymore. This time around I sent everything out to be done. Mostly to a place in Dayton called S&K Racing. I haven't assembled anything yet, but it looks like good work (head porting, cylinder boring, etc...) As far as parts, I've ordered stuff from all over including Germany. If you find any good parts guys or builders in the area let me know! Keep us posted on your progres and we want pictures!!:) :P ;)

The Kaw List:
Current: 79 KZ1000 A3 MKII, 78 KZ1000 A2, 78 KZ1000 Z1-R, 78 KZ650 SR, 80 KE175
Former: 03 KLX400SR, 99 ZRX1000, 82 KZ750 LTD, 80 KZ1000 A4 MKII, 80 KZ1000 LTD, 78 KZ1000 A2, 74 H-2 750 Triple, 78 KL250
