hi from the uk
17 Sep 2010 18:19
hi , i've been riding ,building and modifying bikes for too long , friends tell me i should just buy a modern bike and be happy ,but wheres the enjoyment in that . ressurecting old bikes and improving the breed is a passion , 
i always wanted a z900 but could never afford one when i was young but i could afford a z650 , loved it but was forced to sell due to job loss , so many years later i got another one thats still a work in progress , hopefully ill get it all sorted before the winter , heres a pic , hope you like it so far

Very nice bike! One question though, how did you get that J motor in there?
