...Yeah, so it is! :laugh: ...I really like that kind of bikes !!! :evil: ...ride that, ( or the cafe-racer-style) since the late 70´s...the black one, i tenure since 14 years...it´s a Z1B from `75.
It´s my best-driver Z1 in the last 30 years, and i have had a lot..
VERY good frame, ya know, that´s rare...i´ve had also beasts!!

Hey Joe, welcome! I didn't know there were too many Z enthusiasts in Germany, glad to know!

Great job with the Goose bike, it's been too long since I've watched that movie, time to queue it up again.

Thanks,..yes, it´s a relative big K-scene here in Germany...from the beginning on...last 10 years it has a revival...some of the "younger" guys discover the famous aircooled Z´s...
Sure, watch and enjoy the movie...for me, it´s an obligation to watch it ones a year !

Hi Joe welcome to the forum. I was in germany while in the army in the 70.s and Id say there where more guys riding over there for the size of the country. I seen they are having an anniverary rally so I will will post the link. z-rally.eu/

Thanx a lot, ( ..and i was a few times in the U.S., and alway the fine welcome,..that´s the spirit of Am.!!!)
Yes, germany was ever an " motorcyclists-country", especially in the early and mid,-70´s.
i´ve had my first Z1 900 in `79...was a mess: crash-damaged, all 4 pistons jammed-out, but i´ve repaired it and have had a lot of fun with it. ya all know about: at the age of 19, you`re immortal and the world is just for you!!!
