Modified 1978 Z1000 1105cc - Sold

#1 PostAuthor: MartinB » Sat Jul 08, 2017 7:55 pm

Can't believe this is happening.......
In a moment of madness (and a bit of ear bending from my better half) I've decided to put my Z1000 up for grabs.

Beautiful bike purchased via the forum a couple of years ago and had very little use since, there's just not enough time to use it and looks like it may not be used at all this year.

Purchased it as shown in the photos.
Lots of time and money has gone into all the mods. The file with the bike contains many receipts detailing the work, which is too numerous to list everything.

Briefly:
Monoshock conversion.
Wire wheels.
Billet brake calipers.
Engine rebuilt to 1105cc, RS carbs, Harris pipe etc.

If interested, please contact me and I'll try and go through all the mods, as best I can, better still come and have a look at it.
Needless to say, starts on the button, goes very well and stops on a sixpence.
I'll be putting a fresh MOT on it this coming week.

I shall be out of the UK for 2 months from the 28th July, so only available up until then.
Oops, nearly forgot the important bit....£6995

Thanks to everyone who expressed an interest and for the comments - the Bentleys now gone as well! and for less than the Zed...
Deposit taken and due for collection by the weekend. :cry:
Many thanks Rick - nice to meet you this evening and I'm sure you'll be very happy with the Zed.
