I had a picture of my Kaw posted on the barn find thread (Crisp 1978 CB750K8) and someone asked to post more
of mine on the other bike thread. So here you go:

Damn kid! Where have you been?
I've had the pics of your KZ stored on my ;puter since your days at kzrider.com!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 Yours and yours alone have been the inspiration for my 1974 Z1A rebuild.
 It's good to see you here; what are you up to these days?

meanest looking KZ i've ever seen... and that means a lot coming from me...

my old neighbor had one... wait, a z1, doesn't that make it a 900?  anyway, this thing was tricked for drags w/ a dial and wheelie bar!  we'd go out in the street in the evening and leave the longest stripes of rubber on the pavement i've seen to date.   ;D

excellent work... who did the paint?

A small local shop in S.E. MA, DEK Engineering. I wanted it black and they talked me into the flames. I 'am glad they did not your usual
flame platform but what the hell!
