So...Have had the urge to get a bike for quite awhile, finally broke down a few weeks ago and started looking. I grew up on dirt bikes, have ridden plenty of friends "street" bikes, so it is time for one of my own. Picked up this 78 KZ650B2 for $500. Pretty good buy, as everything is there and works fine, for the most part. Electric start not working, lights not functioning, and rear shoes need replaced.
Been checking out the different sites, and far and away like this one the best. I have a pretty good idea of what I want my finished product to be... For the most part I like the "Tracker" look, probably have a touch of Cafe in it as well before all is said and done. One prerequisite is that my fiancee be able to ride, so it will have to be a 2-up seat.
Would love to hear opinions and feedback as I go through this build!
