Agree mucho better pictures. Would be a shame to sell a bike you have had for many years.

Does not look like there is much to do ?

Wiring, paint job and hopefully rear brake. :wink:

PS apologies, for comments on your ebay sale. I put my foot in it as usual, although I personally do not like monoshocked zeds, but each to their own.

I'll get my coat.

seat looks high at the back,u could always fit shocks bac on anyway if u want,good bike to start with,if u raise it up to much at the bac it affects the steering head angle and if its to steep it will shake its head at high speed

Hope these phots load wiring done just needs a little tidying around the fuse box.When i am happy where everything sits i will shorten the wires and solder the joints where the blue connectors are.This s the first time i have completly rewired a bike.Front brakes are bled just sorting the back out
Managed to get a tank and panels which i am going to get painted or do myself not sure yet. the other tank i put an aircraft type filler and it has always give me problems

Wicked looking brute :twisted:

Nice to see you're doing most of it yourself lad - all too easy to just get the wallet out & pay for a "make-over" by someone else :wink:
And on the 7th day... Zeds were created!
