New Z1 owner from Texas!

Long time Japanese motorcycle lover, just recently picked up a 74 900 Z1, therefore, decided to join this forum! I have an assortment of 80's muscle bikes, been looking for a Z1 for quite some time, one pop up on the local Craigslist last week for a song so I snatched it up! Will definitely be posting in the forums for info needed to restore this bad boy, very happy to be a new member here!

I'm in McKinney, 30 miles north of Dallas! Yes, she is pretty complete, the original exhaust has a few rust holes in the back, I will most likely slap a 4 into 1 on it and be done with it, save the original exhaust for somebody who can restore it for me! I heard they are worth a small fortune! I've already got it running, carbs need gone through, but should be a solid runner soon!
