bought my 1980  ltd 1000 in october and have been working on it all winter . the big change will be the 18 inch wheel from a 1978 Z1R 
and the paint work ., i wanted the luminous blue thats on mk2 and got this color ,what do you guys think? i love it  theres also a pic of the bland light grey of the bike  when i picked it  up . i also tried my hand at pinstriping . havent decided yet if ill do it and clear it over

Ohhhh...love that paint!!

Nice! 

Nice color. Close to the DuPont Imron Regal Blue Metallic I panting my ‘67 RS back in the late 70’s. 

 

Looks good

my color is  called royal blue pearl its a audi/vw paint

Very nice.
Blue is my favorite colour.
Watching what you do with the pinstipping, as I just had my gas tank painted to match (Lagoon Turquoise Metalic) the tail and side covers I'm currently using.
Will add stick on KAWASAKI badges to the tank, but pinstriping is a possability.
Thing is there's already three colours of hand painted pinstriping on the tail and covers.

 

Wow , what  a beautiful kz 650 you have . I’m impressed  noticed the zrx . I had a 2004 grey
zrx  1200 for 5 years , paid 5 k sold it for the same price but in 5 years they gone up quite a bit , sorry I sold it but fell in love with the lowrider s , and bought that and I’ve had it for 5 years now and the bike on nada quide is 2k over original sticker price . What part of Ontario are you from , I’m in Montreal , the pinstriping I got at Canadian tire for 10 bucks . You did a beautiful job on your kz  

Have you ever thought of putting bar end mirrors ? 

Thanks. 

I grew up in Toronto, and still work there, but have lived an hour North for 25 years.
Currently in Jackson's Point, which is on the shore of Lake Simcoe.

I tried one bar end mirror for a while, as that's what came with the Clubman bars I was using.
I found I couldn't see well with the mirror to the side and down so low.
Mind you Clubman bars are much lower than the current bars.

My 2000 ZRX1100 I've had for about 5 years.
I parked the KZ for 4 years while I road the ZRX.
Last season I did a lot of maintenance to the KZ and started to ride her again.
Put 2500 kms on the KZ last season.
Looking forward to this season on her as I removed the Clubman bars (uncomfortable) and put on some higher handle bars.
