    Man, my dad had this exact same paint scheme on his KZ900, brings back great memories and tears.!!!

    Gorgeous resto. I enjoy hearing their enthusiasm come thru when they talk about these old classics.

    Those are the gorgeous Sportsbikes that I was privileged enough, to grow up around in the 70's. Would rather the green or orange version. Droolworthy bike! ❤

    I had the 73 Z1B. The Sophia Loren of motorcycles.
    The most beautiful color scheme ever.

    I had a 76 KZ900, a brown one that I bought new for 2609.00 OTD, and riding it it was like straddling a bolt of lightning! Great machine!

      I owned a 74 Z 900 and raced a 1973 SC 500 Yamaha motocross that the other racers called a light switch. Still alive>

    Got a 75’ Z1b in the garage. It’s in great shape, but sadly non original paint and exhaust. It’s alright I rather love the nasty snarl and looks good of the 4/1 header. The paint is a nice aquamarine blue, really close to the blue Kawasaki used.

    Wonder if these were restored by Johnny’s Vintage in Wadsworth, Ohio? They specialize in these early Kawasakis.

    Beautiful! Just beautiful. Not just the exhaust note; it is everything. The rounded turn signals, the round tail-light; the silver engine. Nowadays the stuff that's coming out, MT-10, etc., it's just ugly. Even the z900RS is not the same. They lack soul! Why not put dual shocks on the z900RS?

    Nut and bolt frame off resto and the owner kept no records/receipts, or surviving family members can't find from the shop who did the restoration?

    Kawasaki should have gone the extra mile with the z900rs, dual shocks on the rear and the 4 exhausts, and would have been perfect
