No, not this one Andy

Will the alloy turbo wing go on that twin headlight fairing or have you got an original fairing The original fairing lowers (side panels, wing and belly pan) should fit as intended with the twin headlight fairing….depending on how many of those parts that I can find, and also depending on what size...

Wow you’re a brave man you better dust off your credit card Hopefully it shouldn’t be too bad Tony, I’ve got a couple of spare engines and boxes of bits so with a bit of luck I’ll mainly just need service parts…. I am still missing the alloy fairing wing and a set of turbo clocks off the top of my ...

I hope it’s allowed to post this in here, mods please delete if not. I recently purchased possibly the cheapest, and roughest 750turbo out there for sale as I’ve always wanted to build one into a special, to go with my turbo powered z650. Here’s the pictures (please no laughing at the back) of what ...

Thanks….yes the styling has grown more on me too over the years, but I’d also love a z1r, one day maybe.
The rear wheel is an old cma road wheel without cush drive, I was struggling to find a matching front, so I’ve used one from a zl900 eliminator, it almost matches!

Everyone likes more photos so here’s another recent one….
I’ve fitted some appropriately large indicators and the standard carbs have now been rebuilt

I’m able to offer a frame painting service, although I currently don’t have the ability for blasting, so the frame would need to come to me in bare metal. I’m just outside Whitchurch in Shropshire, and I have only recently started working as a sole trader, predominantly with Japanese motorcycles. He...

Thanks for the comments…..she’s a diamond in the rough still but it’ll get there

Hi, thought I’d share a couple of photos of my z1000a3 that I bought in march this year. The bike has 15k miles and had been in storage since 1990, it had been fitted with the front and rear ends from a gpz750 unitrak including the mono shock. All of this was quite worn out so I have reinstated the ...

The tank is quite straightforward to fit, I put one on a z750 (this has the same frame shape around the headstock and engine) and all that was needed is to weld a piece of bar across the frame for the tank support rubbers.

Nice to see these progressing :up With reference to the clutch damper rubbers, I bought a few sets of viton replacement rubbers from turbosteve84 on the 750turbo website for £40 a set, iirc he’s in the states but shipped them without any problems and I’ve been using them withouts any issues. The z65...

It’s a lovely place and one of my favourite photo stops, I take it you’re local to the area? There’s not many fellow members that I know of in the area apart from Will, the draw through turbo guru.

The second photo is Whittington castle, near Oswestry. Sorry, the first photo is Hanmer mere which is actually in Wales, I live 3 miles from Whitchurch, Shropshire but our house is in Wales….so I really should have titled the post as Shropshire and Wales border hopping

A couple of photos of my old z650 out testing the new 530 chain and sprockets conversion, all was good albeit a little bit chilly….happy holidays to all.
