Head stock sticker

#1 PostAuthor: wilsonsjw11 » Sun Feb 17, 2013 9:32 am

I have a Z1B with a frame number in the 51000s would that number have been preceeded by a 0 on the original headstock sticker.The head stock sticker is missing and I am going to get a repro item.
Regards
Steve

U.K bikes didn't have a headstock sticker.
Is yours U.K. spec or U.S ?

1975 Z1-B
FRAME NUMBER: Z1F-047500 >
ENGINE NUMBER: Z1E- 047500 >
COLOUR: CANDY SUPER BLUE OR CANDY SUPER RED
Major changes for this model were paintwork and markings, larger side panel badges and the adoption of an 'O' ring chain instead of the previous built in chain oiler. The switchgear was slightly cosmetically changed and the Speedo was now in 10-mph increments. The fuel tap was changed from black to silver and the carbs were modified to improve performance.

Z1bman, I'm asking if the headstock sticker should show the frame number as Z1F-051000 or ZIF-51000 the original was blasted off 20 years ago :shock:
