Hope this works

Pictures of project started
Hope this keeps you all interested for a while







Please feel free to comment - except for the state of the garage!

bit of rot at the bottom of that post Rob, just thought i'd mention it.

oh sorry mate, um nice clean frame there

will add the post issue to the rest of the house projects list and file it in the correct bin ! recycle where possible.

Good luck rob,keep you out of bother for awhile.did you get the bike in bits or have you been busy.

Good luck with it Rob, don't worry about the stuff that needs doing around the house, getting the Zed done is far more important

















































By the way, your garage is a mess

Got the bike in bits and stripped it down a little further. I have had the frame, swing arm, battery box and a few other parts blasted and then powder coated.

Am in the middle cleaning the rest of the parts ready to be powder coated as well.

Stripped out the front forks and about to begin the rebuild of them.

Appart from that, it is how it arrived. The engine turns over but the bike has been of the road since 94. Looking at theh condition of the parts i would be surprised if the bike had covered more than 15k miles as the wheels only have a little surface rust.

Gordon bennett!

What car do you drive - a messerschmidtt?

And I thought my workshop was small - what can I say but 'respec'

...........Ahhhhhhhhh, but it is carpetted, even if not a "fitted" carpet

exactly

the words back burner spring to mind

Thanks for the support !

Garage is small as the wife wanted a new utility room and a kids playroom to hide all the junk in. Hence a small garage. I was ok when i only had one bike as the door shuts with an inch to spare. May be a problem if the z is any longer !!!!!!

Do also have a car - but you gessed it - its in bits on the drive as another ongoing project that was in bits when i purchased it. I feel a trend comming on here.

Good luck Rob. I will keep my eye on this one. Guess there will be no 'cat swinging' in there!!

Good luck with the project Rob. I'm at a similar stage, should keep us both busy for a while.

BTW, your garage looks relatively tidy compared to mine a few months ago. Luckily there are plenty of guys here happy to shame you into cleaning it up, mentioning no names, Mick z1a,

I agree with Phil, screw the house, concentrate on the bike!

its all changed these days kids would play in the garden or bedroom yrs ago then you could tell the mrs she could have the wash tub in the garage ,then the wall could come down
