Hi. I am the new proud owner of a 83 750 someone blessed me with because his wife is not as tolerant as mine. The fairing side-covers continuing from the tank to the rear are kind of ´ratted-up.´ Looks like it met the road a little not on the wheels (timing cover is scratched). If you have any of these parts they would interest me. I just fiured up my 78 Kz 650 I have had for 18 years. I had to swap out the original motor..then htere was - there w e re problems with fuel supply and carburettor adjustments (that are yet to happen)..but I by-passed the tank with a long, fat fuel-line and funnel at the end,--held in place between the clutch cable, or was it the brake cables(??)whatever is on the left and got it to go by shooting gas in the cylinders directly with a syringe (does htis sound hard core?). Sitting on a partly-inflated wheelbarrow-size inner-tube because the wrong battery - too tall for the seat to go on, revving it up and dumping the clutch..aimed at big bEar blvd, almost went infront of a car because my hand slipped off the clutcxh-lever and narrowly regained control. It has a Kerker and sounded nice! Color is factory black with blue pin-stripe and a gold line. I have 650 exttra parts. I am excited to get the GPz750 started. It sat in a garage for 3 years. It will have the usual issues. It has about 28K on it, base color is silver-grey i think with red and some other color stripe. My first love was a ´73 z-1, wrecked it in a week and then fell in love with my surgeon. But she moved to colorado.
