Default New Harley in the shop

Well I guess while my new Harley is at the dealer and the mechanics are trying to figure out why it's clunking I can always ride my old standby. It's always ready to go. Like riding a bicycle with 82 hp.

I had a KZ 750 and have to say that it was the best Japanese bike I have owned.

Nope, I bought it as a pile of junk and restored it. Wife thought I was nuts. Did all the work myself and it runs like a new one. Painted it myself in my driveway. Hand painted the stripes over Candy green then 3 coats of 2K clear. I've got about $7,000 in it and all my labor. I have an original seat but I kind of like that old king and queen. Thanks for the compliment.

Every cruiser should have a lifeboat and yours is a real beauty!

I can relate. My RKC is in the shop after someone pulled out of a side street without seeing me. It takes a few twists of the throttle to get used to 5K+ shift points on my Duc commuter.
