Get some flat bars on it and you’re halfway there :D :D

Actually I really like the paint job. To go with the flat bars - rearsets, proper brakes and a cut down seat. Retro drag look. :D Job done.
Welcome along btw :welc

Welcome along, keep the paint, ditch the bars, by the way that's not a CSR it's a b ltd model probably a B3/4, you can check by frame number in this link.

Welcome to the madhouse. You'll find all the info you need here as these guys are brilliant.

Also, if you've not already done so join the Z1OC proper. It's peanuts compared to the benefits and you'll be supporting the best owners club in the country.

BTW nice paint.

The carbs look to be 28mm, and the head is a Z1 classic head so would have been fuel injection, i had one myself but the injection was a pain so i got converted to carbs, looks like the original seat has gone as it would of been stepped and bloody ugly.
