    I used to have a '91 Kawasaki ZR550. It was my first bike and it was great because I have short legs and I wanted a plain no frills bike. Life happened and I got rid of it several years ago, wish I hadn't and I haven't ridden since. August last year, one of my good friends asked if I wanted a project bike that he didn't have time for, asking nothing for it and I said sure. He bought it off someone that butchered it a bit. I'm blasting up the pictures of my progress so far.
