New guy from FL was created by dustywang
Hi guys, my name is Dustin.I picked a 76 kz400 a few week ago, currently working on getting it running and turning into a cafe racer. Ive been into cars,bikes and offroad vehicles my entire life, both my uncle and grandfather were mechanics so i get it from them. My last motorcycle was stolen from my girlfriends apartment in july 08 ive been bikeless since.
I working on removing everything unwanted and relocating what is for a clean look. Im doing a single carb conversion using a Keihin 35mm air striker carb.
Heres a pic of the bike the day i picked it up
and me trying to kickstarted it.
the previous owner hot wired it because he lost the key burning out the coil and rectifier.
Ill called my Kz the "Dragon Slayer" because the previous owner painted a dragon on each side cover. One dragon stabbing itself and the other breathing fire. Hahaha
