coops here.
I wouldnt say i was really into motorbikes as a general rule. Im realy just into classic japas and particularly my bike which is a kawasaki 500 triple. (22 years now)
Ride it round chch sometimes but spend more time sorting it in garage with or without beer in hand. Spend alot of time on forum Kawasaitriplesworldwide.com for information, which is a forum about the same size as this one 100% dedicated too kawasaki triples 1969-76.
But cant beat local knowledge for local services which is why i am here now. Restoration chat.
TWO SROKES RULE.
Had a few... YZ, CR, RM, 2xRD GT and my H1 (the best one) Steve.

Hi unstuck.
It is. I spend lots of time on it. Ive been preparing and reserching and collecting parts for a 100% stock resoration for two years now. cost me a bloody fortune! put it this way, i couldve bought two brand new large road bikes instead.

But i wouldnt wanna ride them:woohoo:Rather have a triple.

Welcome Coops,nice to have you onboard.Way (i mean waayyy) back i had the pleasure:blink:of riding one from Kaikoura to just passed the old Conway store (long gone) that had no brakes,not shit brakes simply none whatsoever,never ridden a 2 smoker since:gob:Anyways as i said nice to have you onboard,great to see another with an affliction for spending money on older stuff.If your ever heading a few hours South sing out and call in for a brew.Had my oldish TL a decade now and am still chucking money at the thing for no good reason.
