Thanks Tony, mainly RDs/Suzuki until now but enjoying doing this can't believe how heavy and solid things are on the triples! Apart from seat pans :D

Hi and welcome, I am also new to club this year and like yourself finding my way around the web site, looks like a nice project and again like yourself have a GT185 (learn to ride bikes on one back in 76) in the garage with Kawasaki Triples. Just finished a S2A rebuild and my brother and I had our first ride (On the Block) about three weeks ago well worth the time putting into these lovely bikes. Keep up the good work/fun.
Regards Gary (GWB)
