You could always cut the front end off a vw beetle and weld it to the front end of the Z1. Hey presto soopa doopa twin engined - surfing buggie dude.

Now that is just plain silly. You`d never keep the front wheel down.

Kas,

Too much "off road" bias for me.

I want the "road Trike" look/spec.

Jimmock.

Jimmock, I've got a rusty old Z1 frame in the shed, if you want to cut it up instead of your frame just send me your address. There's no V5 but numbers look ok, number looks like its Z1F 00238

Fred, thanks for your offer.

Unfortunately I've already started on the fab work to the frame.

It is a definite one way ticket from here on.

And here's a donor vehicle for your trike parts.

It's got trippy horns as well.

What a bizarre contraption that would look more at home in a circus ring :lol:

Great how that car which was built 15 miles up the road from me can finish up for sale in NZ nearly 60 years on .
What is WOF :wink:

ive got an ST.
I MAY be willing to swap it for your jaffa , even though its a bit older than my bike.

A WOF is a Warrant of Fitness. The car or bike is inspected every 6 months for safety. For a new car I think it's every year for the first 5 years.

You missed out on the Bond, you should have put a bid on for those horns.
