Z1-B Out & About in the Peak District - Great Pics!

Check this out -

I found this article about test riding a Z1-B around the Peak District.
Adam Bagnall owns the bike and there are some great pictures like these to click on as you go through it.
Interesting to hear what the rider thought at first and how his opinions changed on the trip.

Mark,

If I remember correctly I think that article was featured in Classic Mechanics June 2007 issue. Adam paid £2k for the Z1b a few years back, what a bargain, beautiful unrestored example :D :D

Cheers Dave,

Best £2k worth I have seen in along time. Lovely article for him to keep as a souvenir as well.

Does he come to Cheshire Meets?

Did you click on the pics? - they come up massive and really sharp when they load up - better than most of the Z1 articles that are out there.

Hi Mark,

Yes the pics are excellent aren't they really sharp :D :D
I think that Adam lives in Manchester.
We don't currently do any offical meets other than turning up at shows here and there.
I am really struggling to find time at the moment to use my Zed and this bloody weather isn't helping :oops: :oops:

Cheers Dave

There is a Mill Meece Pumping Station Rally coming up on Sunday 8th July - if this bloody rain ever stops.

Be great to see some South Cheshire lads there????

Will post more later if there is a decent forecast for it :evil:

Fingers crossed Mark for some decent weather then. Will make a concerted effort to get there if weather is half decent.
Cheers :D :D
