Lovely looking bike, making good progress there sir. Has nt taken very long. When I restored my Z1000 it took me 12 months. Just shows what can be achieved if you are organised. :D

Hi Bill... Hope you will have a good year too with a lot of Kawasakis and trips :D

The bike will be ready about end of next week, and yes you can drive it as much as you like if I have not sold it until then :roll:
