GPZ resources?

Anyone know of a good forum or message board for early 80's GPZ's? I'm looking at a '82 Kawasaki GPZ550. I've always liked the looks and from what I hear they are pretty bullet proof and fun to ride. I'm looking for some online resources from people who have/had one of these ole girls.

You've been to this
site
, already right? I read on there quite a bit as I had found one somewhat locally a few years ago, but it sold for more than I could afford so unfortunately I wasn't able to buy it.

Yep, that's true, they've got a lot of info on their site. I used to frequent kzrider.com alot when I had my '75 KZ400.

Years ago, before I bought my Ninja 250, I looked at a GPZ550. I was very interested in it as an upgrade from my KZ400. Unfortunately he sold it for more than I could afford at the time, so I bought the Ninja 250 instead. I was wondering how well new or used parts are available nowadays. I buy quite a few of my used parts from eBay and usually buy the new parts from the different online vendors.
