Gav, hi
I need a set doing, who are you using for the hard re-chrome (HCP Mansfield or Philpotts) - what turn around time are they offering you ?
Cheers Tim

Garry,
coincidence but, after I sold my ZRX I ended up buying a "marmite" Guzzi: bit odd ball and like a fast tractor really, but an involving ride all the same



Is it a Le Mans your after ?

Looked lovely Garry - someone has got themselves a good un !
Curious - what V twin are you after ?

Cheers Tim

Hi Ted, good to see you back.

I've had my Z900 for about 9 years and she was needing a bit of a refresh: lockdown arrived and cocked up all planned ride outs- so was an ideal time to tidy her up. Had a couple of paint defects to resolve so turned her a lovely shade of the unpopular "brown", and she had the (wrong) 72-7...

That looks stunning - top job

Any advice appreciated - Cheers Tim

Managed to sort the rear light bracket and number plate positioning and have put UK spec rear shocks on her - I'm pleased as those little changes makes the bike look better. Re exhausts heat shields - I tried to fit the pair of standard heat shields off my old knackered exhausts and could not get th...

Hi,
sorry do not know the part number for the oil pressure switch boot, but Z-Power sell repro ones for the Z1000 A1.

Cheers Tim

Looks super Philippe, great work.
Do love the B2 (had one new back in the day - loved that bike) and yours now looks a lovely example
