Thanks for that, so the big one, restore or tastefully mod, thinking a nice set of alpina wheels, one off swingarm, upside down forks etc, keep the rest looking stock?

Stock will always hold its value but there is always room to have fun but not going so far as to not be able to bring her back to stock. First do not cut the exhaust hangers off, they are unique to the A1 and A2, do everything you can to keep them where they are. Dont sell any of the parts you take off, store them where ever you can, a 96/97 Zephyr 750rs has spoked wheels, swingarm and front end will give you a 160/60 R17 rear tyre and decent front and back brakes..but rare..
