Re: What do you like/have that isnt KZ?
05 Jul 2011 11:39back when those came out my dad was working on one for a friend. When he got it done we went for a ride. He was on his gpz1100 and I was on the yami. I thought the bike was slow as hell until the old man stopped and asked why I couldn't keep up. He thought something was wrong with it until he rode next to me and figured out I was riding it like a four stroke. He told to leave it in second around town and to keep up with him. I wrapped it out to around 13k and kept up just fine with him after that.

Here is my non-kz/GPz bike that I LOVE! It's a Malibu Barbie KLR650 with a $40 luggage rack and panniers. This sort of jury rigging is not cool on a KZ, but on KLR's its a conversation piece
