I managed to get out for a couple of hours today on the zephyr, i was originally going for a Z1b style paint job but when this Jaffa set came up on ebay, i had to go for it, I KNOW IT'S NOT A BIG ZED, BUT MY BODY IS FAILING and it wont be long before i'm down to a Z200 with Z1 styling.

Nothing wrong with that mate
it looks sweet

Looks great that
Seen a few Zephyrs painted in Z1 colours over the years, really suits them.

Made me smile that, like that meself these days - i'm wearing out rapidly!!

Went looking for one of those myself, a lot seemed to end up as commuter hacks, yours looks really cool

Taffus is that your van in pic 2????

so Taffus is a white van Man

That paintset is a nice improvement to the std Zephyr. I have a D3 with the wire wheels in that colour. When I sort out some standard exhausts I will have to come up from Dover and find you. Mine has the colour coded grabrail as well.

be good to meet up sometime
Sandy bikes in bedfordshire do stainless downpipes for these not cheap but good though.
Mine is the colour coded grab rail also, but it had a few chips in it, so i rubbed the paint off the top edges and polished it a bit and gave it a coat of laquer the front muddy also has black sides as one side where it mounts was busted so i repaired it as temporary measure with fibre glass.
I've also tried to enlarge photo 2 to see what it says on the van but to no avail, so we will stick with the Taffus tag for it.

Nowt wrong with a 750 Zeph....

I turned this.....




Into this.....

Kawasaki made wire wheels an option on the last 'D' models and I managed to pick a set up from a breakers, sadly they really needed a re-lace and re-chrome so I just had them powder coated.

lovely Bike well done

i believe thats the bodywork ya bought off me ps u got better money for ya blue bodywork steve

Yes thats the bodywork Steve, i was well chuffed with what i got for the blue bodywork and i still have the handrail and muddy, i repaird the broken muddy with fibreglass and sprayed the sides black it'll do until i get a ltd chrome one, the handrail i rubbed the paint off the outer face polished and laquered it.
