Hi Guys, thanks for allowing me to your website and forum. I am from the south of the Netherlands and started collecting Big Z’s a long time ago along with other big Japanese classics. A couple of years ago I started downsizing my collection as the years are adding up and I now want to work less on bikes and ride more. At the moment I have 4 nice complete Z’s , and I´m working on a ‘73 Sanctuary look-a-like and a ‘79 ST converted to look like a MK2. The last two are still work in progress. Here a picture of some of them

Thanks for the nice comments guys. For the fans some pics from the
Sanctuary look-a-like. It is a ‘73 with a heavily braced frame, Aprilia Y-spoke wheels, 332mm WSBK discs, DLC coated Showa fork (no USD) with radial calipers (still looking for GP4RX in 108mm), electronic tach and speedo by GPS, fatbar, modern switchgear from R1 and Blade, Brutale 910R master cylinders left and right, all visible nuts and bolts except for the engine are titanium, hand made engine brackets, engine is mostly stock but with 1000cc, hydraulic clutch (Brembo slave cylinder) and modified ignition and alternator cover, 31mm CV carbs, Blade coils, ‘76 wiring harness with modern fuse box, K-factory exhaust with SC muffler, all engine bolts and nuts are stainless. Bimota rear brake with KTM master cylinder and Brembo caliper, heavily modified TL1000R swingarm, 520 chain and sprockets, and a lot more I forgot to mention ..... I am still on the look out for some neat rear shocks and seat will be hand cut like the older superbikes ...

All modern electrics with a MK2 replica wiring harness and modern fuse box. Home made footrests with Tarozzi shifter and brake lever. Exhaust has a remote operated valve but not entirely sure if it stays.. Electronic Speedhut gauges in stock surroundings and GPS. Engine rebuilt , hydraulic clutch, 19T up front comes with outrigger bearing welded in stock looking engine cover. Oil cooler with thermostat and also titanium and stainless bolts and nuts on frame and engine and handmade engine brackets ... Frame and engine still to be painted..
