I sincerely hope so... I had one literally identical to it in the 80's, same colour aswell. Kinda' miss it, but not what I spent on it ! :roll:

Lovely bikes Will,

I bought one a couple of years back but the boss/wife did not like it and we struggled with the seat two up. Paul bought it off me and I've regretted it ever since.

But at least I know it went to a good home and won't be cut up and streetfightered. It was too original to mess around with.

Personally I think although the Martins, as with any old cafe racer, handle much better with later cycle parts fitted (tyre width/choice etc) I still think they look much better as standard... unless of course it came with the std Zed front end

Ah well, whatever you're bringing Paul, I'm sure it'll be a corker :wink:

great turn out well done all
nine bike's all gorgeous
I really liked Russ's monoshocked Zed it has to be the best monoshock example I have ever seen the swinging arm was short and neat unlike most example's where the arm look's too long
I finally got to see Rich's arris and beleive me it's no old nail
it is stunning
good to meet up with some old friend's again
Hobbo and Hutch
we had a great weekend

weather on the way back was unbeleivable
monsoon shower's meant the Zed's were really wet weather bike's :lol:
