I like it, I don't think nice bikes should be turned into rat/cafe bikes but if it wasnt pretty to start with then the mad max in me loves it!

what's it sound like with that can on it?

i can't ride around the block without earplugs. it was ugly to start with. An old bike like this I'd rather mess with to make it go and turn better than to just make it shiny as when it was brand new. It was the lowly 450, not one of the cooler ones.

kick ass bike, I'm jealous
Did you make a stop in my hometown, OB (Ocean Beach, SD) on your venture through Southern Cali? Also, the orange and black are quite fitting

 

[curseboy]

My Bike when I lived in Socal a few years ago. Man I miss riding out there year round!

Amen, brother. I'd say between that (the canyons) and surfing, it's what I miss the most (well, my friends, too) about LA...and NOTHING else! Ha!
Hey, did you ever get to OutRider's in Santa Monica? It's called HammyBoy's now. I worked there, back in the day.

Yeah man L.A. is definitely a love hate relationship for me too. The riding is fantastic though (out of the city). My brother and I moved to Marina Del Rey in 1990 and he became a tech at Marina Suzuki while he was in flight school. The Garage Company was just getting started then down the street. I remember Outrider I went there a couple of times. I used to ride to the Rock Store almost every weekend on my GS back then.

 

[Bad Kaw]

Cool man! Yeah, I was there in 95/6/7 and I had the same feelings: love/hate!
I had an '82 Kawasaki KZ1000J and a GPz550 ('82) that I used to take to the Rock Store all the time (normally the GPz). I might have a photo of your bike in some of my stuff. I DEFINATELY would have shot it if I would have seen it; sweet bike.
Yep, Topanga Canyon every weekend, or occassionally the Crest, or Ojai. Just before I left at the end of '97 the Crest started to get really sketchy, guys were dying up there about every other weekend.
But all good memories for me; the guy that picked-up OutRider (Hambis) is a buddy of mine and I try to get back there every couple years. You ever get back there? Helps me remember why I don't live out there, and keeps my 'surf' gene at bay.
It's pretty wild, my wife and I are from Kansas and live here now; but she's got family out there and I've got friends there...weird, but true.
Sorry to babble man, again = sweet bike!

I am actually out here in San Diego on business now. I still get out west a couple times a year. My parents live in Thousand Oaks and I will be spending Easter Sunday at there place and taking a ride to the Rock Store with my Dad and brother.

 

[Bad Kaw]

Ewwwwwwww, jealousy abounds even now in my heart! Ha!
I'm dealing with summer enrollment and empending finals and term papers...*ghuh!* ... if ONLY I could get to the Rock Store for just the shortest of rides...
Enjoy the ride man! Be sure to take pics!

Nice bike. What are the tyres? They look like they allow the demon lean angle

 

[sark]

Now with lifted tank and uni filters!
