Hi Peter, looks like its gona be a good looking bike. got myself a 1978 z1000 recently as well but gone down the standardish route (for now) but no doubt it'll be getting wheel and suspension upgrades in the near future

Hi Peter
welcome to the club!
It looks like it's going to be a special bike with all the improvements you're planning.
When you're improving the suspension, braking power and the engine, don't forget to adapt (strenghten) the frame!
Good luck with it.
Greetings from Belgium.
Philippe
