I'd love to try a KZ900. My Dad bought one new when I was a kid, and he still talks about it.

I'd love to follow your Misfit upgrades. Please show us pics as you make changes.

This is me in 1976:



By today's standards, it's not that great (my son has a CB1000rr w 1070hp), but in it's day, there weren't many production bikes quicker. It's still cool, however, and it's got some real "grunt".....kind of like the old muscle cars...

So far, I've had to change to front axle bearings (defective), and I'm about to replace the chain (supposed to be an issue). I've got a front fairing on the way that I think will be a cool addition, and I'm going to lop off that plastic rear fender...I really like this little bike, and enjoy the light weight.
