As part of my "gas crunch" I have recently picked up a new "eco-box".

I got it from a fellow Foot Guarder for the very comfortable price of Free.

It's a 1981 Kawasaki KZ1000 CSR

I've got a few issues to deal with, nothing huge, just a fuel leak and a running issue. Here are some pics...

Free's always good! nice bike so even if you put 100 bucks into fixing it then it is still a steal! nice paint job to.

Awesome bike.
I had one of those - but with a smaller engine. The thing was like a tank and pretty much ran without stopping.

Sounds like a group ride is in the future.

Free. Well, that's better then the deal that I thought I got. And at 1000cc, nice.

Congrats.

We definitely need to setup a CT ride sometime.

I'd love to. Only thing is that it won't be registered before then. :wink:
