Frame with reg wanted

#1 PostAuthor: Zebedee » Fri Feb 25, 2022 3:06 pm

Okay maybe this is a dangerous post for my first one?
Im looking for a big zed frame (Z900 preferred - isnt everyone!) for my franken bike. Its got a zed 1000 frame but no v5 and z1000 bottom end with z900 barrels. Bodywork tank, tail and panels are in great condition. (Recently repainted?) its on LTD wheels but the frame doesnt have the lugs for rear disk master cylinder.

Hence looking for another frame. Im happy to change the wheels or at a push get a frame that i can bolt the master cylinder to if the tank will fit? Any help gratefully apreciated.

Z900 frames do not have fittings for rear master cylinder.

You will pay a premium for a 900 frame if you can find one. A 1000 frame can be had for 280 - 480 with a Nova on ebay . If you are building a special / resto mod type of thing don't waste money on a 900 frame .

Well I’m not particularly going down the special route. I bought this as a z900 but its turned out not quite so.
My first thoughts are to get it all back together save it and then ride it.
If later it turns out I get two projects a z900 and a z1000 that I can work towards then happy days.
I do seem to have amassed quite a lot of various spares already so whilst I only have the one frame a z900? And no v5 and one engine (z1000 cranks and 900 barrels? ) im just trying to get it on the road as step one and then I can incrementally improve over time.

Sorry I should have asked. What do you want for your z1a frame?
