Well my ragged 73 is almost done. I just have to rebuild the front brake, had a seized piston, and do a test ride to make sure everything works as it should. I'll get some more pics up of it. Someone mentioned selling the wheels if they are lester mags. They are lester mags, now why would I sell them? Lat time I checked, wheels are pretty conducive to the ability to ride the bike. If they are worth a bunch of money maybe I'd do it. I'm only paying 1000 for the bike but I've invested a hell of a lot of time and work into it. I just put on the 3 point engine guards and finished troubleshooting the wiring. Hopefully she will be out on the road as my daily driver soon.

1973 Z1 900. Currently ratty. Black Mac Performance 4-1 canister exhaust. Emgo Pod Filters, LTD Seat, 3 point crash bars, big ass touring screen. Work in progress.

I'll get pics as soon as I get her all together, right now you wouldn't see any difference between the first ones I posted and these. 1973 Z1 900. Currently ratty.

Those Lester mags if in good condition will fetch retarded money on ebay. The reason being, they also fit the H2's and I believe the H1's as well. People that own those bikes seem to just love to spend stupid money for their parts. I saw an NOS set of Lesters fetch almost two grand not long ago on ebay. Just something to keep in mind.
