Good point to consider
Thanks

On a Mod bike I would think the rule of thumb should be KZ Powered and a free hand from their on.floivanus wrote: I'm just stirring it up. That thing deserves it just as much as any gsxr forked ninja swingarmed bike out there. It is kz powered after all
That being said , from my never ending search to bring KZR the finest bikes I can find and get the owners to feed me the info needed to be able to present them to the membership I don't believe it will be hard to have solid BOTMs with KZ power for a long , long time.
Next year I am going to present some of our smaller cc models as we are a everything KZ site. Hope you all enjoy what Im doing.

Personally nothing more boring to me than lines of identical bolt standard bikes like seen at stafford bike show, I bet even their owner's get them mixed up..
I like this BOTM thread
1980 Gpz550 D1, 1981 GPz550 D1. 1982 GPz750R1. 1983 z1000R R2. all four aces
