Dayum Leon! You got another one, you dog!

Better not let Larry see that exhaust, it looks way too low. Totally unsafe! Deathtrap, I tell ya! Oh well the rapture is tomorrow and Larry moved on. I guess it's okay. Just kidding bro, nice score.

Before long you'll have a different Z1R for every day of the week. Let's see, which one do I want to ride today. Hmmmm....

Is Adam still building you a CF dash? You may as well order another. He hasn't been around for a while. Have you heard from him?

adam is already supposed to be making me two carbon fiber dashes.:whistle:

i texted back and forth with him last friday.i emailed him this monday and haven't heard back from him.he is probably busy with the job.

or maybe he just hates me :huh: .
he called me a bunch of bad names when i sent him pictures of this bike.
he took back the bad words,but then he called me some even worse words :sick: .he said that he thought those were more appropriate. :laugh:
he talked about my mother and everything :ohmy: ,he hasn't even met her :silly: .

this one is missing so much stuff in the dash already i may not need a dash for it.just stick a vapor in there and roll :evil: .
sitting on it looking down in the back of the fairing and seeing the headlight kinda gives it a race bike feel.
testa i think this one might need a swingarm built for it and some linkage and shock off a late model zx-10 perhaps.not at first but down the road.first thing is to make it run and ride then start gathering parts for mods later.

it sits quite a bit lower than the black z1r.the wife say's that is why it should be hers :pinch: .

mark,
now if we can just find the guy that needs that slip on for a period correct restoration :whistle: and wants to trade some z1r parts for it :lol: .

i need to get more land so that when i take pics my junk doesn't get in the background. :pinch:

it has accell coils on it.they are kinda big and round (vintage?)i'll have to get some pics of em.i guess if they work they are fine.

That GS750 has a set of Accel coils on it. They seem to work just fine. As a matter of fact, they are probably the least of the electrical troubles on that bike. I love that handlebar, does Z1 carry that? Is mama missing a broom handle?

[quote="testarossa" I love that handlebar, does Z1 carry that? Is mama missing a broom handle?[/quote]

no but some local in kellyville is missing there horseshoe stake :woohoo: !

i had about five sets of bars laying around and none of them would fit the z1r (because of the fairing) .
i was going to take the horse shoe stake off and replace it with something else just to move it around,no dice.as soon as i can delegate some cash to this bike i will order some drag bars for it.i have already pulled that slip on off,and replaced it with a nice shiny kerker megaphone.i am not sure what the header is,but the kerker tailpiece slipped right on.it is lower than the kerker on my black z1r tho.i also threw one of my seats on it that is in better shape than the one it came with.

Missing horseshoe stake, huh? Well there goes the family reunion.

Leon don't need no stinkin' brakes. In Oklahoma they stop by running into a round bail. :P
