New to the club and new to this bike!

[v1ru5]

Hi all,
My name is Rob and Im in the SF Bay area, CA. I have had my bike now two weeks now and love it! I got a 2000 zg 1000 with only 6500 miles on it.  The bike looks brand new!
I would like to meet club members in my area, so if you’re in my area, please contact me!
I wanted to do some mods to the bike mostly want to add a trunk on the back and thing to increase the gas mileage.
Any recommendations would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Rob

Welcome Rob,
There is a forum section for south west area communications and lots of tech help all around.  Enjoy and see you on the road.

Welcome Rob,  ^-^

There is a Sacramento contingent of COGger's that have a monthly dinner and local rides every once in a while. Hopefully someone from that area will pipe in and let you know the details.

Lots of options for trunks, Murphs (one of our awesome Industry Members) and Givi are a couple of sources. It really helps when you connect up with other Concours and can see what others have done.

Rob, welcome, Steve in Sunny Fla (SISF) is our go to guy for carbs and he has developed a jet kit that gives an increase in both mileage and power, as well as eliminating the flat spot in the power curve. He also offers a service where you ship him your carbs and he will rebuild them, instal his kit and overflow tubes and ship them back. PM him for info.
