Eddie was a good friend of mine.
In 1983 he bought a leftover 1982 KZ550.
I occasionally did maintenance on his bike.
Eddie past away last year, and his family gave me his bike.
It's been sitting in his garage for 15 years!
Got a service manual on fleabag.
Lot of work ahead.
Hope I can get it running again for my old buddy,
Eddie.
