Hello everybody
Hello form Germany
First posting here.
After long reading and Inspiration in the projects section, I have decided to engage with my new (old) Z 1 B "Green Frankensteins Monster" project.
Sorry to everyone if my old school english is not perfect.
I try to upload some pictures of my bike from 1997.
More will follow from my new modifications.

Welcome Scirocco.
Is that an older model in your avatar picture?

Like the look of your Z. B)
At first I thought the second bike was also your daily ride, but is the donor.
It looks to be in great shape too.

I'd like to extend a big welcome fron Arizona. Before I was sent here I was stationed (yes I was in the USAF at the time) at Hahan AB. I was running around the Hundsruck on a then new R-100RS. I stil miss the Mosel winefests and the Spiesbraten and swenkbraten. MMMMM. My beemer toped out about 205kph (125mph). Thatwas a long time ago. It was a great time though.
Nice Z and what are your plans for the donor bike?

I don't have a plan and I'm sticken' to it! '77 KZ 650 / 750 GPz custom project in progress

Nice to find some members here with some german language support,in case of my total confusion.
@ nerdy, more pictures will follow.

@ azman857 , see in my new member posting,these are all the rest of the parts i don't need anymore.
I needed only the fork,wheels,break parts, axles and some minor parts.
Be leave it or not it was 800 dollar bike with a good ruining motor and technical check by the Technical Test Centre (TÜV Germany).
The rest goes away for very little money, i need the space for storage.

Thats the destiny of all donor bikes, little sacrifices to extending the lives of classic bikes.
