Evening folks,
New member. Hoping to pick brain's and get some pointers along the way.
Bought a 1980 Z750, previous owner has done a bit of restoration on it, some good, some not so good.

Welcome! I had the same bike back in (80). Ran 12:00 at the track, box stock ( that was hot for a 750 in that era). Put a Denco pipe on & dropped to (11;70'S). Great improvement for no more than a pipe. I am at present restoring a (1982) GPZ 750, true barn find. Resourcing parts take forever, but I am in no hurry. Just having fun.
Your bike look Great!! Like the colors. I would have never put that combination together, but it does look extremely well.
If I can help you in any way, just let me know. I do have extensive working knowledge of these bikes (not bragging).

Welcome.
Aside from the fork gaiters and yellow springs that is not a bad looking bike at all. Is the tank dented on the right or is that just a reflection?
