Modified Z1000 A1 for sale

[JohnC]

Hello my name is Jacqueline and I am John’s partner.
You may have read on the forum that John passed suddenly and unexpectedly in February this year and I now find myself having to sort out his affairs whilst dealing with his loss.
I have decided to sell his beloved Bike as I have no motorcycle license and want to offer it to the club membership first.
I have been advised that it is worth around £8500 but I am happy to negotiate this.
The bike is in West Scotland.
I will try and answer any questions to the best of my ability via Johns PM message or his email as I have access to both.
I have included Johns pictures from his original project thread as the bike is pretty much still the same, there is also a standard seat to go with it …thanks for looking
