Stunning young lady :drool on an unmolested Z400, followed her for the ride duration. :lol: :lol:

Run is only about 10 miles to cater for these old klangers. Anyone know what this is? over heard owner say it doesn't have a clutch, push start then your off, When you stop, motor stops too.

Hi Al, yes we had good varity of bikes, although my mates let me down with no show on there Zed's (MAYBE TO HOT FOR THEN). Saturday run started at the Thirsty Camel Ravenswood Hotel carpark which is on the banks of Murray River, and finished on the foreshore in town at Mandurah. Didn't include pics of location, might of being to much for you guys to handle :D :D :D
Not sure what BMEC is (British Motorcycle Endurance Club???) but no I'm not in, just take pics of bikes worthy showing. These runs always get infested with Metric Cruisers and Lead Wings, but raise some needed cash for errr,, needy. Hench

apps -I made up rack myself with the help of a drunken boiler maker.
Bought a cheapo repo grab rail, unknown rack from wrecker, cut/tuck/trim/tigged/chromed. After market 70's ones look too much like a deadly treadly rack, this ones more chunkier. Hench

G'day hench, :beer Thanks for the pics. The rack looks great, I might have to do that myself. I do heaps of touring so I'm looking for a rack that suits the bike. My current ride Z900 A4 has a gear sack rack that looks poxy.
Cheers, Apples
Stay upright and enjoy the ride.
