It was a beautifull sight
10 Oct 2012 22:51 - 13 Oct 2012 17:00
It was back in August About 4 pm one afternoon and I was driving my Dodge Caravan on highway 403 between Hamilton and and Brantford Ontario. I could see it coming in my rear view mirror. All black. Black bike, black rider and definitely that 70s/80s look. At first I thought it was an older Beemer with that wide wide crank looking like a flat twin and the small cockpit fairing, I was at 110 - 120 kph (60 - 70 mph) and it blew by me going like the clappers. Black, beautiful, polished immaculate. I saw KZ1000 on the side panel. I think it was a Z1 R but it might have been a MkII. The guy got off at Hwy24. Did my heart good. Would love to see it again. Proud to ride a KZ even if its only a 750 (small four)

KZs are rare around here.

I see KZs occasionally around here, and sometimes think I should turn around and follow them.
Just to chat and such.
That's not a small four.
Bigger than what I ride.
