GOT MY A4 ROAD REGISTERED FINALLY

#1 PostAuthor: RGH » Mon Nov 10, 2014 11:08 am

after a total resto, started with half a motor and frame with bonus Z1 forks, finished Xmas eve 2013, but only just got it rego'd.

Had a visit from Shaun who scribes for a couple bike mags who is doing a article on the resto, hopefully it'll get published.

It's being 31 years since l've ridden a Kat, by kripes it gets up and boogies,
I'd have one in a flash if l had the dosh.

Ran into a mate on his freshened up 83 Turbo

Rode out with our very own 75z on his 77Z and Gordos on Geeper's 1100

That's the highly desirable Oz made Tingate Exhaust Systems, cost an arm and leg if you can find one, the note is music too the ears, but they do make your ears bleed, do attract the Fuzz aswell.

In the day z1bman, the brown was laughed at, but how things change.

Hope to do another A4 in the future, it too will be brown.

A faded Dark Diamond Green does look better then a faded Diamond Brown but.

No not at all, I ain't got a libido. Jimmock does make me laugh though,
he's wit is second to none. If I had an ear of corn for everytime I laughed
out loud genuinely at his witty lines, I'd sell that corn and go for a holiday
in Australia :beam

The lid is a nice touch. The Zed is lovely, looks very well restored.

The weather and countryside does not compute. Sorry :??
