    Kawasaki ZRX1200??

    Remember When Rally Sept 21,22,23 -2017

    Joe is out, his 11 day ride to North Carolina with Steve the week before is more than enough riding in such a short period of time. Understandable.

    Kawasaki ZRX1200??

    I have a good friend and riding buddy with a pretty darn nice ZRX for sale in LA. There should be quite a few folks on this forum that know Steve Lowery. If your interested please send me a message and I will get you in touch with Steve.

    As a funny end to this thread I again find myself looking for gasket maker. While searching, this thread popped up. Go Figure! That lakota I rebuilt. I informed the owner that the chain and sprockets were bad and needed to be replaced. I even warned him of the possible collateral damage. He...

    Need new battery

    I now use a Shorai battery and love the 12 pounds it shaved from my bikes weight. On my 03 I used a Panasonic LCX1220p, the first one lasted over 6 years. The battery costs less than $50.00 so i bought another one. See if this link...
