I picked up a Barney bike today. She sat unran for about 5 years in a garage. My goal is to bring her back to life and then resist the urge to keep her. I've been riding for a bit over 20 years. My current rides are a Z125 that I bought new and put almost 13,000 mostly commute miles on and, on the opposite end of the naked bike spectrum, a recent project turned own bike 1978 GL1000 Old Wing.
I find it therapeutic to buy bikes that don't run, bring them back to life, and then find someone who will love them. Recent projects include a pretty rough 03 Honda CB750 and an 07 Suzuki C50.
This is the first Concours I have dealt with, but I have always had a soft spot for them. Kawasaki really hit a home run with the initial design. I will try to get some photos up once I get some hosted somewhere. I will also start a thread where I can post progress and ask questions.
