    77 KZ 650 Complete Rebuild (Near Finished)

    I know - I wish I had taken more time to kinda walk everyone through the build... Especially when we were building the seat and chopping down the rear portion, but it wasn't even on my mind.

    My pops used to have this bike, the last time he rode it was in 1986. It's been sitting dormant back in my barn ever since. Me and my dad towed it out a couple weeks ago and got down to work. This is how she looked when we pulled her out It took us no time at all to start it, after cleaning...
