This particular bike was always special to our customer Chip from the time it was new. So when it came up for sale and bought right out from under him we imagine he was pretty disappointed. Soon he had the chance to purchase it and become the third owner in the early 90’s. After doing some riding and some wrenching on it, he put it in storage when his son was born in 98. He now wants to do some riding with his son and have it restored as he always had planned. And he wanted it to be unique. This bike features stock smooth-bore carburetors, Kerker header, Wiseco 1045 Piston Kit, rebuilt master cylinders front and rear, re-covered seat, re-powder coated seat pan, Custom paint to match powder coat “Kaw Green,” various polished aluminum parts, electronic regulator-rectifier from Rick’s Electric, Renthal handlebars, Vapor blasted head, cylinder, oil pan, cases, polished billet half moons for the cylinder head, EBC front and rear brake rotors, and brake pads, EBC clutch, Pingel fuel valve. Seat has been powder coated and re-covered. Once it took shape, it really grew on us. We hope you enjoy this most recent Johnny's build.

Thank you, so beautiful. You talked about Japan, when I lived there in the 70's It was so fun to meet and see the Japanese people. They're legs were so short that when they would race between traffic lights they would lean way over, as the light changed they would straighten the bike up and zoom off to the next light and do it all over again. Great memory's of bike's that hadn't even been seen in the United States until years later.

45 years riding I have never warmed a bike up by continually throttling a motorcycle like you do. Sorry Johnny, it just drives me nuts. Tell your mechanic he did a great job as usual.

You are absolutely correct. I have always put all my gear on, start the engine and ride off immediately. Same with a car. Of course it goes without saying that the engine should never be worked hard until thoroughly warmed up. Senseless idling wastes fuel and is not bad for the environment.

Great restore, my buddy scored a 77 KZ1000 for dirt cheap and it is in stock form 50,000km on it and overall very very good shape. Love your restore but painting frame green destroyed it for me, should have been left black

Nice bike, nice work, nice video. But.. i gotta complain about the removal of sissy bars and the rear rack? These jap bikes don't look right without one. Back in the day, if you saw that tall bar sticking up in the back, you knew it had POWER, it got respect, and just overall good look and feeling. But somewhere in the timeline, people felt embarrassed that it WASNT a Damn Harley, so they took them off. BRING BACK THE SISSY BAR! Bring these bikes back to their glory.

I think you mean 'Grab Bar'?
@extreme978
@extreme978 11 месяцев назад
@@Jim-MT a grab bar is that small bar that go's close to the rear fender. A sissy bar stood up about 18 inches, and had a leather pad on it. Its purpose was to make the passenger feel more comfortable from falling off, coining the phrase "sissy bar"
@Jim-MT
@Jim-MT 11 месяцев назад
@@extreme978 Yep, after owning 32 motorcycles over 60yrs including 3 Harleys I know that. My point was that this bike came with a grab bar that one holds (grabs) onto rather than a sissy bar that one leans back on.
