    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

1980 KAWASAKI KZ750

Running Project bike. Has 25,700 miles. Approximately 1.5-2 years ago we started working on it as a shop project. Carburetors were cleaned, oil changed, and new spark plugs were installed. The bike starts right up and runs good, idles good. All lights/signals/gauges, etc. work. Charging system works good, putting out 13 volts. (note: just noticed headlight not working...maybe just a bulb) Main problem the bike still has is the gas tank. A previous owner used a "kreem" liner in it that is now flaking loose. We started to clean out the tank, but got sidetracked with other projects. This bike got pushed back further and further on the back burner, and now we're trying to clean house and make some room, so it's got to go. In addition to the gas tank, the back tire is worn down and needs replaced. Bike has a little rust...things like the seat pan, shock springs, etc. Also, a tear on one side of the seat. Will make an easy project bike for someone that takes the time to repair the tank, or just find a replacement on eBay. Bike has a clear title.
