I found the original Craigslist posting I had saved so I thought I would share.







In the garage as it sat on the day I purchased her. It was like 5 degrees that day!





Here it is all loaded up heading for home

Will be cool! Sure looks like you know what your doing also!
I will give up my Girlfriend and my 1st born for that old Woodie rim :laugh:
The Harley Drag Bike guys used to use them in the early 80's with the 7" Goodyear slicks

Thank you For the kind words Z1kzonly.
When I bought my first street bike back in 1991 it was a 73 Z1 it had a 4"? wide alum spoke rear rim. I wanted the 8" wide but could not afford it. Plus all the other mods that went with it. I am building the bike I wish I could have had when I was a kid. Chasing my youth........

Not sure I know what I am doing? I blew the main fuse 3 times while wiring the bike. but I am sure learning a lot!

Been working it some and have some photos of some things I have already completed. We made some headway with the machined manifolds this week. Jim finalized the design and should be cutting parts next week. Fingers crossed



New key and hour meter installed



Made some tiny tabs for mounting plates and items to the frame


tabs used to attach plates



Yamaha R6 regulator mounted and wired in



Jim got the snout of the blower machined and collar made. The support plate that will run from crank drive up to the blower it will bolt up to this collar.

Here is the tabs before I cut them from a sheet
