Ok going to try and upload the photos first,

Here we go with one




















ok photos seem to be working , 1973 Z1 frame and engine , 1000cc head , bored out to 1200cc, I have stripped her down had everything that could be powder coated black done, put the new shocks on this bike and put a full new nut and bolt kit on the engine, i have a full set for the rest of the bike as well. me and a couple of big lads slotted the engine back in yesterday.

My next task is to clean the wheels and front end up and get her back on her feet, i have most parts to steam on now so will be doing a bit each week and will keep you all updated.

coming along nicely mate.im itchin to see the mori paint job.

[Meconium]

the bikes looking great inside the front sprocket cover it looks like you've put new foam sound deadening in, is it off the shelf stuff or just normal foam coz mines gopping

[Z1parR]

Slow down a bit Ian , you're making the rest of us look piss slack when we take ages doing our bikes

Great job you're doing

[MCZ900]

the foam padding is the original, i put it in an industrial hot bath for 4 hrs complete with the case as it had 30 odd years of chain grease on it and thats how it came out, just had to re polish the outer case.

The paint job.... i do like the one z power did so it will be something like that, already spoken to dream for a price , unless anyone knows anyone in the derby notts area?? i just have to get the 4 snapped off tank badge screws out the tank first, but paint will be in January.
