Post pics of Kawasakis that are RIP

Anyone got pics of bikes that are too far gone, in major need of help, current state of project, or just sitting and waiting to be helped? I bought this 80 KZ550 needing a lot of help but could not just let it die. They started parting it before I bought it. Its got a title but it will have to wait its turn. Also a shot of my MESS

Here's a picture of my brother's '79 650 C3, beside my house maybe 8 years ago.
I still have some bits of the C3, but she will never see the road again, at least not with the original engine and some bits.
I still have the frame with title, so you never know what might happen one day.

Many more, I have like 6 more KZ650s in same basic shape, :sick:
Some day I'll clean out the shed, the guy bought those three bikes plus a 1981 KZ550 I never had a picture of, so I'm slowly getting rid of them. Still have the 4 nice KZ650s, the 2 KZ1000s, and a 1974H2.
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

I wish I still had my 74 H2. But I crashed and burned on it. :( The motor then went into a racing snowmobile :woohoo:
