Z1A now on ramp and time for rebuild, got this one about 5 years ago, put it on road for yorkshire rally this year and gave the Z1B a rest. it ran as sweet as a nut but all the 1970`s stuff has to go ( dresda,3 spoke CMA wheels,V&H pipes). Will be doing it back to original.So will be contacting all the usual suspects for the jobs i dont do.

Doesn't look too bad as is from that angle?
I'm currently doing one myself, so look forward to watching your progress.
