Taking Joe's advice. Seemed to go well. Hopefully will hear her bark tomorrow. Rain, what rain?

Sounds really nice, and enjoy your ride.
I have a 1980 Kawasaki KZ750 Ltd. I bought new. I recently managed to get it out of my garage after 28 years and put it on the road again (2010). I feel like a kid all over again. Since I have acquired 3 78 KZ1000 Ltd, 1 1981 KZ1000 Ltd, and another 1980 KZ750 Ltd. Love the LTD's.

Sounds strong and you didn't play around and got it done.... give those pistons and rings a little time to seat and I bet it will be even stronger.
Warm today but then rainy and colder for a week here so right after that I'll finally be hittin the road too as long as I put things back together right.

I may have the timing one tooth advanced. It's easy to do.
