Noob Z1 guy in Seattle

Hello the forum! W-P Bill here, typing at you from the Seattle-Tacoma area. Some of you may recognize me from either the Worldwide Z1 Comm or the BTK Kawasaki forum. This is my 75 Z1B. Trying to keep the mods old school, pretty much just upgraded suspension bits, Sun aluminum wheels, and a Kerker 4 into 1. Since the photo was taken I've gone to a s/s brake line and a full floater rotor up front. Oh yeah, an EMGO bikini fairing as well.

You can only be young once, but you can be immature forever!

Kamakura JAPAN, 1975 Z1B (x2, both in storage)

Yes sire...that's a classic Z1 you have there. The way they are supposed to look. Much better than all the new bikes that are one lump of plastic that look like the bike next to it. Good job Bill.

Hello WPBill...yes, I do know you from the Comm...I do drop in there every now and again but spend more time here as it is a lot more active. Although, I'll probably spend more time over there as I very recently picked up a 1975 Z2A:) and that will require a bit of Z1 expertise to bring back to life.
