Hello from rainy England! was created by Redwitch
Hi there,
I have just joined the club. I am in the rainy UK on the south coast in a county called Dorset. I have always loved Kawasakis and have had 2 KZ550's. I came back to biking this year after a 12 year break and recently bought a KZ750 Ltd which I came across by chance in a dealers. It is a 1980 bike, and was in the USA until it was imported back here in December 1995. It's not in bad condition, neads a little TLC, got just 17,800 miles on the clock. The bike has been resprayed a sort of blue and the tank decals are missing, so next year I will respray her back to her original black. Oh and she's called Cally as I am a bit of a Blake's 7 fan (UK eighties sci fi show). Will post a picture if I manage to press the right buttons!

Take it from me cuz I found
If you leave it then somebody else is bound,
To find that treasure, that moment of pleasure,
When yours, it could have been.

My great grandfather came from England and his name was Rainey. Imagine the implications! This is the place to be with a KBike! Enjoy!
