Hello there,

Well, I've never posted anything, ever, anywhere so this might be a picture of my Z1000 MK II (A4) which I bought back in '81 and appears to be a keeper.

Stay safe all and Seeya On The Road (One day...)

Rick

Well, that went well...

So here's my (K)Z900 A4 bought earlier this century from a bloke called Dave and rebuilt over 7 years.

Cheers

Rick

Both been keys are delish

It's great that you have owned the Mk2 for so long-bought when they were the big dog first time round

Have you had it painted in the US colours- the pinstriping being different to UK spec bikes that is have seen over the years

Happy riding when you can

Hello there Reecy,

Yeah, I'd owned the MK II for a decade or so and fancied a bit of a change but nothing as radical as a different Bike.
I really like the look of the 1980 US colour scheme (plus Sir Ted Lawson rode one like it!) so my Missus had it sprayed for me as a birthday gift.
Thanks for you interest .

Cheers

Rick

Hello Philippe,

Thankyou, like all of us, I'm very fond of me ol' Zeds which are being polished to within an inch (Centimetre?) of their lives during Lockdown.
I'm currently fettling a Z1000 Ltd (B2) which will share garage space with them and maybe even get ridden in 2021?

Stay safe mate,

Rick
