Thanks for the pics' :wink:
Just got to ask,..
Has the frame on the Jaffa been raked or is it just the picture/angle ?
Picture 4, makes it look longer?

My Jaffa look-a-like is actually a Z1B, but don't tell anyone.

Yes being raked by previous owner. also heavily braced, 16" hog rear wheel and cut-n-tuck passenger foot rest brackets, handles like it's on rails, which is rather odd for a Zed. :lol:

that is the good side!

there is a huge bald patch in two other places (like my fat head!) - the tyre is so bad. I have no idea how it has worn so irregularly but new tyres will be ordered in the morning.

\nice pix, the tyre wear being uneven would indicate wheel balance, you notice it when the front is out, but less so on the rear

I will get that checked on the new tyre install.

You live and learn!
