If the standard stays the same until the end then this is going to be a belter of a bike.

Some background music? -

Not a lot been happening on this of late, one thing an' another you know how it is - or maybe not if your blessed ha ha.
The Crankcase breather is now welded -
The start of the idea

Drilled

Trial fit

Welded

Anyhow to 'recap' on the build of parts used

Z1B of 75 vintage - frame braced & delugged, rear upward frame rails extended 3"

Rear end - GSXR 750L swingarm and linkages,1100M wheel FZR 1000 Monoshock.

Front end - FZR 1000 Genesis ('88 41mm forks) with welded & bolted 3" risers on FZR yolks

In work' at the moment is the exhaust.

Exhaustcraft is currently making the pipe, which i believe is the first Zed he's made with a flat collector - main reason for this requirement for me, was ground clearance with 17" wheels.

Dave sent me these pictures of progress -

Well impressed by the quality of workmanship.

So thats all i have to tell, i know its a painfully slow build but it'll get there (one day ha ha)
So untill the next time, lets be carefull out there.

Very Nice Work

The Flat collector looks Real good :brav

like one of those Marving ones normally seen on German Zeds/GS`s etc, should give a good few needed centimetres of clearance

Yeh Instant Karma when this arrived last week. Quality job from Exhaust Craft, i'm well chuffed with it :up

Makin' room in the workshop, movin' 'shite' around - never throw owt away tho' :oops:

found this in one of the many tins -had a little chuckle to meself (easily pleased & who says the drugs don't work :lol:

)... if memory serves me right, i'd bought this around '81 from Hadleigh Custom - anyone remember them?
Still in reasonable condition, bit of a clean up, add some Z1R cables & away yer go -
