Hello from Brazil

Yes, i'm here logged and joined.
I waited patiently for this step.
I started looking for a Z1 bike in 2009. Remembering that I'm in Brazil, where there aren't many of these bikes. I had the first opportunity to see the bike in 2012, only frame and lower engine. Since then, I have not lost contact with the owner and only now in September 2019 we reached an agreement to negotiate the bike. He did not want to hand the bike over to viewers who might abuse such a difficult project. I did a convincing and negotiating job to get the dreamed Z1. During this time, I purchased many parts of the 1976 KZ 900 model, including many of them in overseas flight baggage. But the Z1 was the focus and I didn't give up. Many local bikers said it was a crazy idea. Yes madness, I agree, but today they recognize that a Z1 could work again. The road is still long, but it doesn't matter. I'll go ahead.
