Thanks GB....

Problems at home have gone terminal and I'm now having to entertain something I vowed to myself I'd never do - put my Z1000A2 up for sale. Problem is that it's not standard so have lost track of what is a reasonable figure to ask. Could anyone give me a steer please? Some details: 5.5"/3.5"...

Top fella and absolutely carb-OCD!

Done a few jobs for me and couldn't believe how diligent he is.

I've a set of Koni Dial-A-Rides for a Z1000 but don't know if they'll do for your 9.
All chrome, mint ,almost as new condition with very little use. Sorry, not shrouded.
Let me know if any good.
Cheers, Hilton
