Too good a deal to pass up!
I'll be keeping most of the KZ's, but I think the KZ650B1 is going to have to be sold. :(


Did I mention it's fast! ;)
1977 KZ650C1
and the KZ650/KZ750 Conversion ;)

look closer they only made that bike from 1986 till last year so a guy should have not to much trouble finding one that is low mileage. and they are a great bike if you do run in to an issue with wind buffetting zero gravity makes 3 or 4 different heights of windsheilds to fit that bike.

I bought a new 1990 Concourse and it just didn't agree with me. Kept it 1000 miles then got the Yamaha FJ1200, kept it like 600 miles, then got a new BMW1000 and kept it like 800 miles. That's when it hit me that new motorcycles did NOT agree with me which was probably the best thing that ever happened because I spent $0 on motorcycle purchases since except a few KZs to add to the fleet up till late last year anyway. Good luck though, I just did not like the concours at all but it was still miles better than the BMW and several thousand miles better than the FJ1200 :)
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.
