Its a 1978 Kawasaki KZ200! This thing is a pimp-mobile from a by-gone era.  I mean look at it, who couldnt roll this thing around town and not catch ALL the eyes?  I'm gonna try and use it as a commuter bike for a while.  Not sure how that'll work out.  We shall see though, I'm afraid its going to be too slow.

The 'other' woman.  05 Honda VFR800 Interceptor.  My truck in the background, but who cares. 

And since I'm on the subject:  Now that the gas crunch is over, at least here in Oklahoma, I've noticed a sharp decline in the amount of scooter riders/save the planet organizers.  Why do they not cling to their scooters and hybrids now that the gas prices have gone down?  Why is it ok to ride a scooter at $4/gal for gasoline, but not when its $1.89/gal?  My VFR gets 50mpg on $4/gal gas just as it does $1.89/gal gas.  It ALWAYS pays to ride it.   It just pays more when gas is higher.  Get back on your scooters and start living your dream.

Nice rides. The KZ looks to be in great shape. How may miles does it have? From the photo I'm guessing less than 5000.
