SoCal Z1B Newbie... better late than never.

Hi Guys Great Forum you have here. Picked up my bike around Thanksgiving...had been sitting in a barn for a few years. I haven't ridden in about 20 years....thought it was time to climb back on the ole horse. I've been hangin' around the forum for a few months reading up....posted just a few times. So far, I've cleaned up two sets of carbs, cleaned up the electrical and installed a relay for the ignition and de-rusted the gas tank. Finally got the beast started!
Lots of work to go....look forward to all of the info on here and getting to know you folks!

Here's a pic

Get that beast running so you can meet up with us when we get together.
Welcome to Kzrider, you have found a new home.
Grant.

I am on the case....but never worked on a bike before, so it's slooooow goin' Look forward to getting it on the road!

There are two good sources for shop manuals:
1. www.repairmanual.com
2. www.manualsnmore.com

Haynes and Clymer in my opinion are o.k. for some things, but I like the manuals from the two I first listed.

Another choice would be E-Bay too.

Thanks MFolks! I went manual crazy right off the bat. I've got Clymer/Haynes, factory shop manual and Zedder. Ok...a bit overkill, but like I said, don't have alot of bike knowledge yet. What can I say, I love a good read.

Welcome to KZR, get that bike road worthy so we can meet up. Nice looking bike, get rid of that drip pan, it makes it look like a Harley.

Welcome HeyJacko! If you truly have a Z1P, then you have a very rare bike...restore it...don't modify it (but then it is your bike and you could chop it if you choose :X ) :laugh:

x2....i had the same shocks on mine and when i got it and it was doing strange things.....i went with some other shocks and it calmed down...Mcdroid wrote:
