I had the 600 version of that Kawasaki Ninja in about 1987. Had a heap of other bikes over the years. Currently got 2 old RZ500 Yamahas in the shed waiting restoration. I used to ride one everywhere and I picked up another for parts.
I've also been messing with Yamaha XS650s. I built this one out of a collection of different parts a few years back.
I also customized a Yamaha Roadstar 1600. Made my own pipes and a bunch of other parts. Sold it to finance the Cobra build. (Excuse the white legs)
Cheers

Here are a couple of my 97 Harley Bad Boy. I bought it new 14 years ago, and it only has 3k miles on it. I don't ride it much, but can't bring myself to sell it.
I have no pics, but I had one of those Kawasaki H1 triples. It was my only form of transportation for three years. Ridiculous acceleration but cornered like a pig.

I have no idea how I lived thru that.
I hit a Cadillac on my new '74 Kawasaki triple, walked away, straightened the front fender when I got home, sold it to my dad that fall when I went off to school, and he finally gave it to a missionary organization with bush pilots (Wycliffe Bible Translators) shortly before he died in 1995. Last I heard there was a missionary on the back of it in Indonesia.
bought my first Honda 350 twin in 1969. After a 42 years I have finally bought my second Honda 350.
I couldn't resist. It cost $75.00, it had been sitting several years without being started. Put some gas in the rusty tank and hooked up a battery. It started right up, at least on one cylinder.
Will keep you all posted as the restoration progresses.
