A Daytona 675 is my other toy - this photo was taken In Manderscheid in Germany en route to the Nurburgring and then Spa for the |Bikers Classic in July, hence the caravan sized Ventura bag on the back :lol:

thats a beauty DDZ, mate mate restored a blue one 25 years ago when i had my first z9,we used to swap frequently, i loved the feel of that kettle. we still laugh to this day about the moment the centre pot kicked in and he hadnt realised it was only running on 2, i saw the smoke and the back wheel slide and off he went lol

Hi,
Yes, it was on e-bay last year, the guy, I sold it to, was hoping to sell it on for nearly double what he payed me for it, shame on him, needless to say he failed, I took 3 years to restore the bike, and showed it at Bristol bike show.
it was a great bike, and very nice to ride..and sorely miss.. :cry:

and was"nt too bad to start, sometime it would"nt, but once you got the knack, it was ok..

Yesterday I finished this!
Taken just under a year, complete strip and rebuild, need to get a couple of rubber washers and two lower fairing screws, replace a couple of indicator lenses that I thought I'd get away with and she's done.

Next project is a Harris Magnum 2 when it gets here from the UK.

Thank you, it still need a final polish and detail, the light was shite and the picture was taken with an iphone, but you get the general idea.
