Thumbs up Hello, Fellow Kawi Guys & Girls

Hey everyone, I'm new to the Kawi forum but not new to the love for Kawasaki. As long as there are no title issues tomorrow I will picking up a 2002 ZX6 ! ! I'm really excited it's affordable but with some fairing and misc parts needed. Shifts smooth runs well, slight valve tick @ 30Kmiles. I will let everyone know how it turns out & hopefully update my profile to OWNER! Other than that I'm 25 living down here in Austin and going to school for business. Look forward to hearing from everybody!

Do you know if there are any adjustments on the triple tree. The handlebars are slightly turned a couple degrees to the left...

Welcome AM. Glad to have another Texan. Be careful in that crazy Austin traffic. You will have some great twisty roads to ride. Be sure to post some pics.

Thumbs up Thank You All, I picked her up today!

Thanks for all the replies & warm welcomes, I picked up my bike today, and plan on changing the oil (much needed change) tomorrow & I think after sitting in traffic today and running a temp of 222 that I will do a coolant flush & change. I will post pictures that I take tomorrow of the bike and showing the rough edges she needs smoothed out. I did notice that after the bike ran hot in traffic and the temp was outrageously high that restarting only happen w/ WOT so you had to crack the throttle all the way or she wouldn't start. So I'm hoping the oil change and coolant change will bring her up to par! Then the plugs, brakes, and ticking valves @ the shop next...
