Damn Jizzy! Back at it again with the black vans.
I don't look a tit in them honest.I must be the oldest bastard in town as well.I don't look a tit in them honest.
A friend told me to get an old KZ and I agree those vintage UJM bikes are pretty cool but they always need work .50 litres of concentrated aluminium safe ultrasonic cleaning solution, at a mix ratio of 10-1 = 500 litres, should keep me going for a while.
Also a complete 1979 Honda CB650Z rocker box for 0.99p because nobody else bid, you can never have enough SOHC Honda top end parts.
It's been hot so a Mistral portable evaporative cooler to keep the homebrew at a good temperature.
What? You mean a Kawasaki=KZ as in KZ650/Z650? Please enlighten me as to "they always need work" as I really don't understand that statement, one of my old Honda's has got 72K on the clock and it has never had anything done to it other than a yearly service in the time I've owned it. The only problem I usually come across with most old Jap fours is when previous owners have done stupidly unnecessary work on them when they should have left them the fuck alone and when they didn't have a fucking clue what they were doing. Just about every old non running Jap bike that I have bought was made a non runner by the previous owners incompetence at "fixing" them. I buy old dead Jap bikes, get them running right and other than a service I never, ever touch them, I'll ride them as long as I like to then I'll sell them. Never a truer statement than "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".A friend told me to get an old KZ and I agree those vintage UJM bikes are pretty cool but they always need work .

those are nice dude.
i used to use those squeeze grips. ill use clay or an egg. after a while,i felt like those were hurting my knuckles. but i still use them from time to time.
Of course the parts will wear out on 40 year old bikes, especially the rubber items and they will need replacing but once that is done you only have to ride them and service them once a year. It'll be the same in 40 years with these darned new fangled contraptions that don't even have carbs but they do have more little black boxes than a space shuttle, good luck fixing one of them at the side of the road.KZ period 650 / 900 / 1000 he just told me I should get a kz . And I mean seals are always going bad , carb boots dryrotted , mastercylinder seals bad , brake lines bad . regulator rectifiers burning out . I've just seen ALOT of those old jap UJMs fail simply because of age . Great bikes though . Id punch a toddler right in the face for a CB1100x inline 6 from the early 80s .
Same with an old kaw H2 triple. Its really a shame they are starting to fade . My friend right now has a broke down kz900 because one of the old jap warehouses that still had parts for them got wiped out in the 2011 jap Tsunami .
And finding parts for them is even getting hard on ebay . I remember his kaw was down for almost a year because of a tapered carb bushing that the bushing was tapered on one side only and with a regular bushin or the old one it had a steady drip of gas .
