Barnsley?
Sounds like my brother 's Z1a, green? Top end noise ? Asking £12,500
USA import and had it 5-6yrs, don't know what he paid but I liked it so much that I've just bought one even though I'm a BMW man

Hi Phillipe,
Its a short bike ramp, and I cannot run it forward enough to set it back on the centre stand. I have the front wheel firmly clamped and straps to keep it upright..took 2 people to steady the ship.
I do have a small lift but I doubt if it will go on the existing ramp.
Thanks

Hi guys,
Is it practical/possible to lower the centre stand by lifting the back end with a person either side and one of us kicking the centre stand down
The front end is clamped on a lowered ramp and an exhaust is not fitted.
Thanks guys and merry Christmas

If the rims I have been offered are Z1a after August then I should forget it then?
Most of my bike is Z1, small tank badge, black crancases, old switchgear etc

Thanks for that, I first need to know how bad any rims me be.
Is it a worthless task if they are a few months newer than the bike?

Rusty rims? Can they be saved? I would be very interested. Can you do some pictures?
Thanks

Thanks Deka

An extremely long shot I know,
Does anyone have a front and rear rim to go on my Aug 73 z1a?
Or is it easier to win the lottery?
Ady

Great, thanks for that...many, many dumb questions on the way

On a black crancase engine, is the sump plate also black? I will be dropping the sump for cleaning. What does anyone recommend foe engine paint? Brush or spray?
Thanks
