    Is the bike still their database? I know in cali after 7 years they dump it and pretty much whoever pays to reg it again has rights to it as they see it as "abandoned". Might just try seeing what a status is and go from there. I have had OK luck with just being honest and friendly with the...

    78 KZ's Bike - repost from the old forum (locO)

    Hello, I was wondering where you got the fairing from, or if you remembered what it was called. I have looked around and only been able to find ones similar to that one but much more bulky. Thank you for your time.
