Now I know why people who like KZs really really like KZs.
That's exactly my take on the KZ thing !!! I fell in love the first moment I rode my 750H1 LTD. AWESOME !!!
Looks like you found yourself a new sickness to deal with ! Nice bike !

Siggy,
Welcome!
One of the worst m/c buying:selling mistakes that I made was to sell my '82 GPz550...been trying to remedy that situation every since I caused it. :blush: BTW: nice bike.
I've been thinking about your comment -- I think part of why I bought this bike is that my very first bike ever, at 15, then all through high school and college, was a 1975 Kawasaki 2-stroke 125cc enduro. Originally my dad's bike, he made it my 16th birthday present (forever cementing him in my mind as 'best dad ever' and forgiving any and all shortcomings forever). I wrecked once too often and sold it. Among the worst decisions I've ever made. Sure it was impractical on the road, buzzy, stank, made you stink like burning oil and gas. But I sure miss all of that. Thank God there's a minor head gasket leak on the KZ, so I've returned to the burning oil smell.
