Hi.
My name is Bob Montgomery.
I am 69 yo and live with my wife in Falmouth, Maine.
Currently own a 1975 Kawa Z1-B 900 for last 20 years.
In past, I owned a 1977 Honda CB550 four and a Honda CB350.
I have limited workspace and general knowledge for tuneups and repairs but my repair shop closed, so needing advice on the bike. Cheers!

Welcome from central Massachusetts, from a 70 yo with a Z1A (for 45 years!). I have family in the Nobleboro area, so I'm familiar with your region. Lot of nice rides along the coast!

Welcome to KZRider....from south-central Texas. I bought a new Z1B in 1975 and like an idiot, traded it in on a 1977 KZ1000A1...which did not treat me well.
