Give me your addy and we, in Chicago, will ride it up to you providing that it ain't 32 degrees. But I think there was someone in Wisconsin that is supposed to be next. Hell, I will do a 3-400 mile day, no sweat.
PM me. Or text me 7oh8 254 JONZ :evil:

CLEAN, Man, it's got a tail fin! I would leave it as is but me? If I got that I would probably be looking for a different tank to match the tail fin. Would a Z1R tank fit? or something custom. Wide swing arm and USD forks. I could mod this without feeling guilty of changing the classic lines of the Z. It's still pretty as it is. VERY CLEAN Nice bike. CONGRATS

Great find on that 750 very clean moeshine welcome to the forum.

Man you are all the way on the East side of the state. :pinch:

Unfortunately the flag has pass through there last August .

The flag is in Quincy Illinois on the Mississippi river right now, I am the next in line to grab it and will bring it into Chicago on the weekend of April 13, 14 :huh:
Most likely it will be on Sunday because Tom W. would like to join us on his way back from the Moonshine lunch.

I plan on going as far East as Kankakee IL but I'm not taking it back into Indiana or Michigan sorry Bro been there done that :laugh:

Just checked, it would be a 700 mile round trip for you, do you trust the bike ?
If you join us I'll buy pizza :P

Still uploading for another little bit so if it doesn't work try try again. This is just the first video of three. It takes fairly long to upload. Hope you enjoy.

A little out of order perhaps but the longer videos take forever. When they upload I will chronicle them in correct order.
From Montrose we headed towards Lower Wacker Drive and then on to the trip back.

Glad to see this is going again. Good luck folk.
BTW, I had a red 81 KZ750E just like that barn find. Found it in 95 with 7k miles on it. Sweet bikes, wish I still had mine. Best town bike I ever owned.
