Hi All. Just joined up . I’ve recently brought a Z1B , I understand it’s an American Import and was registered in May 1974 & has the original Engine. It’s not run for a good number of years . I’m planning a full resto on it next year ( can’t do it myself , so will be looking for some recommendations ( Middx / Herts area ) if anyone knows of any good restorers. I’ve added a couple of Pics as well. Look forward to sharing progress / being a member. Thanks. Justin

Welcome to the club justin.. its needs some love.. you will need deep pockets for any restorations these days. But you came to the right place, for all the advice you will need here..
Might be an idea to get yourself to the Stafford show ( this weekend ( sat sun ) have a look on the club stand, might get you motivated.. hope to meet up with you will be there sunday... I'm in harts bishops stortford so might be near you?.. :)
