Nice. I have dial-up so the picture came in slowly, from the top down. When I saw the color and Kawi sticker, I thought it was the 750 turbo. But then I saw the 5 after the GPZ. Most of the youngsters here won't know the significance of this bike.

I'm usually not into the older bikes, but this one caught my eye.

The 750KZ (some of quickest bikes ever built) evolved into the 750GPz They were good bikes...great find

Tom Cruise rode a 900GPz in Top Gun

Very nice. My brother still has his '85 GPZ550 that he bought new.

Those are nice bikes and fun to ride.
