No kidding. That car had to have been stored in perfect conditions for it to still look like new ...:ooo:

Dang, that is a nice bike. You seem to find these regularly.

If you come across a 1982 KZ1100D in nice condition, I'd be interested. I bought one new and in 1995 sold it dirt cheap to a "friend" so he had a bike to ride while saving up for a Harley. He agreed to the condition it ONLY came back to me, when he was ready. Found out a few months later he sold it for nearly 4 times what I got from him....:mad: Friggen dirt bag people.

My brother and I had QA50s in the early seventies. He had a red one like yours and I had a yellow one with a "sissy" bar on it. I wonder if we have any pics of ours. I'll check into it.

I had a Kawasaki KV75 like this one in 1975. Had lots of fun on that mini-bike. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of me riding it. Thinking about getting another one like it.

Love all of these Mini's including my favorite, the CT/Trail 70 Hondas. And, I'm a fan of the 70's Kaw KZ's as well.

I built this one a few years ago. I realized I had the ugliest bike in my group at the vintage races at Road America, so I had to do something about that.

Next thing you know, the bike ended up being 69 Chevelle themed, with the clutch cover made to look like the front profile of the Chevelle fender, a Chevelle stripe, 69 patterned Parchment seat, and painted to match my race car.

My only regret is starting with a newer Chinese bike instead of building off a vintage frame.

I didn't know this thread existed.

Here's my 1973 Suzuki Trailhopper that I restored in my basement. It took about two years working on it here and there. It sat for 20 years and was locked up when I picked it up. Tried to use all Suzuki parts when possible. The paint and chrome work were done professionally. I just started on a 1971 this weekend. I'm going to tackle the paint this go around.
