KZ900-A4

#1 PostAuthor: zedman » Sat Mar 06, 2021 7:09 pm

Hello All. Couple of photies of my '76 A4. Ive owned the bike since 1995 and did a full resto in 1996. Bikes not so mint as it was but still looks and rides well. If any members up here in Moray fancy a meet up, that'd be good. Take care all

Hi Pablo, thanks for link to local bikes. Hopefully we can all meet up when this Covid is finally in the mirrors. Nice bike, I’m looking at getting a bike lift to save my achy knees and back. My missus owns the olde sweet shop in Inverness.

Nice A4.
You might want to adjust your bottom fork/wheel clamps - they look to have a gap at the front - they should be flush at the front and gapped at the rear. Just saying.
Cheers

Hello, the shop is on Church Street past the Mercure hotel. Should be opening up soon as restrictions are lifted. Cheers, Zedman

Hi Pete, I know all about snowdrifts now after being snowed in a few weeks back. Bikes are all cozy in the garage waiting for the sun.
Hope you're enjoying life in the tropics!

Bought a DT175 in the early 80's as a daily runner around the time the 125 law came in. You could pick up 125-250cc bikes for next to nothing by then due to the new law.

Oh for the benefit of hindsight and a large warehouse in 1983....
