Hello! This is the bike I bought from a guy in Scotland who had owned it for 10 years. I paid £4999 in January but it needed some light restoration. This is what I've done; Removed original 4:2 and replaced with a second hand Vance & Hines which retained the original finned exhaust clamps. £20...

Outage relay arrived from the US today (labeled Z750 1979), fitted and all now works fine.
