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

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 -

Very Nice Work 
The Flat collector looks Real good 
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
Makin' room in the workshop, movin' 'shite' around - never throw owt away tho'
found this in one of the many tins -had a little chuckle to meself (easily pleased & who says the drugs don't work 
)... 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 -
