    New member from PA

    hello all!
    I was referred here by a member of the KZRider forum.

    I have an '84 KZ700 that I've just recently gotten back to road worthy after sitting since 2018. It was a gift from my Uncle.
    My Uncle helping grow my love for all things motorcycle related. He provided the truck to purchase and transport my first bike: 1985 (i think) Yamaha DT100.

    My current/next project is kind of a basket case '83 GS850L. It's a non-runner. But i think all the parts are there.

    Happy to be here and looking forward to getting to know the community!

        Key, I'm thinking when you get this old GS up and go'in, you'll probably just forget about those old Kawasaki and Yammy things... Naw, joking aside all are good. That being said, most anything you'll need to find about that GS, somebody here has been there done that and should help fix you right up. Oh, almost forgot... WELCOME !

          Welcome! Suzuki built a lot of those 850s, and most of their owners are right here. You came to the right place. Welcome!
