And that means lots of decals. The Martin ones were custom made in the original font. Racing number is bike year of origin.

And here's one of the complete bike, he built the frame, swingarm, fuel tank, tailpiece and the exhaust from scratch, I just hope I'm not going to be banned for posting this pic. :unsure:


This bike is awesome. Great craftsmanship.

He does build them to order, for instance with a KZ engine? ;)

This was his first bike about ten years ago, now they are even nicer, bigger diameter pipe for the main frame, home build single sided swingarms, he's getting into aluminum tank and seat units with some nice handbeaten curves. And his tig welds are still improving.

This one is getting overhauled too, FCR Flatslides, modern aftermarket wheels and rotors.

very nice stuff there Robin.
If you need more wiring diagrams i could try to copy 1 out of my manual. it has diagrams for years 73 to 79 i think.
Good luck.

Please let me know if the pictures work. :unsure:














Martin Z1 is pretty much finished, paint the Disc centers, fill the front brake and polish the swingarm, putting it on the Dyno in a while to check power and mixture, maybe some new filters of I find some who fit the frame. Next winter pull the motor and redo the original black finish.
