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.

Re: 17th December in sunny Shropshire

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

:D

Re: New shed

I can’t believe how quickly the time seems to go by these days but I’m still trying to collect all the parts needed for the z1r moriwaki, I’ve been lucky enough to find a metmachex braced swing arm which I really like, unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to use the 5x18” astralite wheel though ...

gpz750 turbo engine

Gpz750 turbo engine for sale. It’s been in dry storage for many years, turns over with good compression, no stud, thread, or fin damage. Very clean and original looking inside the cam cover, will need a full cosmetic restoration and I’d also recommend an internal check with replacement cam chain, va...

Z1b carbs spares or repair

I have some z1b carbs for sale that came to me with a modified gs1000 engine, I’ve tested them on the Suzuki engine and they work well with no leaks.
