About time I registered as Ive often found your site informative and enjoyable.B)

Ok, I know my bike isn't strictly a KZ but a ZR but I hope you will make allowances for that.

The bike in question is a '91 ZR750 Zephyr. Ive had it for just over 3 years now and done a few mods on it in that time.
Most notably:-
GPz 750 cams in a ported head.
Six speed gearbox conversion out of a GPz 550.
Six pot calipers off a ZX7R

The gearbox job was a worthwhile one and I see some members have done the same on their KZ's:)

Jobs to do are to fit some bigger carbs and pods in place of the near stock setup. Otherwise its get out and ride time.:laugh:

Well I'm from the UK.
In fact a place called Ashford in Kent which is in the south east of England.

I will put these details in my sig once ive figured out how!

Im always looking for improvements I can make, usually anything that can be done on a tight budget.

Welcome aboard!

That is a sweet lookin' Zephyr. I think you can fit right in as those models have a lot in common with our older iron.
