Bicycle
Hello all! I recently joined the site, and have made a few posts, but just found the intro section. I just picked up a '93 Connie in beautiful shape, with hi mileage (96K). My experience with KZs plus reading the info here gave me the confidence to buy a well used bike.
I do all my own maintenance and repairs, having learned first at the knee of my father who was an amazingly capable shade tree mechanic (among other things). I have been riding motorcycles off and on since I was 15, and I am now nearing 63, with no plans to stop riding anytime soon. I have been a longtime member of and contributor to the KZrider.com forum, and own a stable of KZ750 4 cylinder bikes. The one I used the most (before the Connie) has about 108K miles on it. (I will try my hand at attaching a picture, below.) I ride regularly across the SF Bay Bridge from my home in Berkeley to my office in San Francisco.
Great site here. I have learned a lot from reading over the wealth of information stashed in the various hidden spots, and hope to learn more.
