Hey Y'all,
I just got back into the KZ game again after a 5 year absence. I've been a KZ rider since 1992, starting with a '79 400ltd, then got a '81 1000ltd. 5 Years later got a basket case '78 kz650 that never made it to the street.
So basically, It has been 10 years since I last rode a KZ. In my searches for another 81 1000ltd, I came across a cherry condition KZ750. It is a recent refurb after sitting out a 20 year hiatus. The PO redid everything rubber and reshot the paint. She's just shy of perfect. I just got it last night, rode her 50 miles to home and never missed a beat.
I am looking forward to turning it's odometer's 11k into much more! Here's a starter pic for those interested.
See y'all 'round!
Corey

Welcome to KZR Corey, nice looking bike. Too bad it is in such good condition! You will have to spend all your free time riding it, instead of wrenching on it like the rest of us.:lol:

Believe me, with my old boat I'm restoring and my love for classic Jet Ski's, I gots plenty to wrench on. I wanted something witha 'magic button' on the right side next to the throttle that makes the fun noise every time.
BTW: I just put another 75 miles on her. I plan on taking advantage of every opportunity that comes my way - I got 10 years of catching up to do!
