One on right is Z1, left is Z900.
The Z1 items were upgraded to Z900 type as they used to split around the hole.

With the service that Rob Meggit offers with the choke plungers that should be the starting point once the carbs have been cleaned.

Re: Z900 A4 Starting( or not) for 1st time after full restoration
Prove that the fuel cap is venting by opening it and then opening the fuel tap, a blocked vent hole in the cap is a common problem.

Re: Z1 1973
Under the cap should be a black rubber gaiter type seal and the associated white plastic retainer between the seal and the underside of the cap.
All good on the master cylinder now!!

Re: Z1 1973
The plastic body looks longer than standard, like the cap isn’t screwed right home but I may be wrong??
Can someone else confirm!!
I will look at mine more closely at the weekend.

Re: Z1 1973
Have the throttle cables got 2 different part numbers on them, the correct items should be: 54012-087 and 54012-081.
There are longer items available but I believe they are pattern parts.

The brake master cylinder could be from a later model, a close up photo would confirm.

Re: Z1 1973
Excellent bike and the paintwork looks original as the lining is correct at the front and rear of the tank, correct green too. Even the likes of Doremi and PMC can't quite get the lining right. The only painter in the UK who seemed to understand the lining was Hutch, see the green/yellow Z1 that he ...

Re: 72 Z1 for sale-comments gents.
For that price you would expect a correct original ignition switch, the orange lining at the rear of the tank comes down to the end at the wrong angle which nearly all painters can't get right, the mirrors are the later model.
