Hello from ON Canada
31 Jul 2022 06:16 - 31 Jul 2022 09:19
    
    Greetings.  Nostalgia finally got to me ... This is my new (to me) '79 KZ650.  I had a GPz 550 back in '83 (a gold one) and always wanted a KZ...well...I finally got one. It appears to be in reasonably good original shape, small tear in the seat, but other than that its all there and original. Once warmed up runs and pulls good, no complaints.  has 45,000kms on the odometer. I put the original chrome stock mirrors back on it since the 2 pics below, the previous owner had swapped them out for whatever reason.  I got a big box of spare parts from a donor bike with the purchase, carbs, covers, gauges, cables, headlight etc etc. as well as another set of front and rear rims.  My daily driver is a 2011 Versys 650.

    We need pictures!  Where in Ontario?  I lived all over N and NW Ontario.  Nowadays I live close to Kamloops in BC.  
  
      
      I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar.

    Welcome! I used to guide canoe trips in Algonquin, Temagami, Muskoka, and beyond. I have a deep abiding love for Ontario. Enjoy your new ride!
