Thanks. I think I remember telling (my now ex) wife I thought I'd have it on the road in a month or so. Then I had this idea, then another, then another...

The Rally soudns like a must attend, and as you've given me a year, I should be able to bring this machine. ;)

OK, I've been really sh*t about keeping this thread alive. Happily, work on the bike has continued, and today she went on the road for the first time. Still need paint, but need something to ride, so looks be damned for the minute, anyway.

Here's a pic from about a week or so ago. Exhaust and tank have been swapped and few more bits have been added. Will be adding more current pics and some of the build shots here shortly.

The same thoughts that I've been having about mine. Get the bugs worked out and ride it ugly (although yours is far from ugly ;-) Next winter will be tear down and make pretty. Great looking bike!

Looks to be coming along great. It's always good to see some care lavished on a nice vintage scoot.

This build is being featured in our directory here: RobK's '76 KZ900 B1

At this point, we're only displaying a reduced-size photo (similar to what you'd find in Google Images). We'd like to ask for your permission to publish the original full-size image with your build listing.

If anyone would like to have a build of their own listed, just send me a message with a link to the build thread and we'll take care of the rest.

Ken
