ET has come home ...

Postby ETz1000 » Fri Feb 10, 2012 1:31 pm

Hello All

Well much to the horror of my wife and the amusement of my 21yo son ... I have returned to motorcycling after 8 years of being without.

Almost ...

I've bought a bike ... an imported KZ1000 ... that needs some time, parts and work to get it up and running.

My plan is to do it initially as a Cafe Racer and eventually as a 'Goose' bike from Mad Max. The bike came with the correct fairing and tail piece.

I'll post some pics when I work out how.

Cheers

Pete

G'day and welcome mate. Your in the right place for info on old Z's. I'm pretty sure Gos will be along shortly.

Get those pics up, it'll be good to see her.

Thx dickfaber ... I've been a member of the MM forum for many years. Lot's of info and a very decent bunch. My avatar is the actual Toecutter helmet and prosthetic from the film. It's owned by a mate from the MM board :)
