Now its sinking in. Go get her.
I paid $250 for my Z1, sure it was 27 years ago but I still bought it not knowing they were to be a collectible one day. Back then they were plentiful. I rode her for years and put her away for over 10 years then along came a complete motor for $350.00 on ebay, and it has never been the same since.

No doubt... Engine cylinders seem to be ion good shape, no broken fins that I could see nor did I see oil leakage....

Hell, I saw on e-bay last month a Lochart cooler go for $250 by itself.... How much you want for it? :laugh:

I believe timebomb has some VM 28mm carbs for sale that would be just about right for that old girl....

Way to go....

Thank you all for giving me a reason to get. I needed someone to blame other than me, right?:P
From # on the motor, it should be Z1-B assuming motor has not been changed. I look on the frame around the steering head, I didn't see any stamped number other than "Made in Japan".
Being Z1-B, I guess there won't be an oil tank. No tools or manual but trays are there. Yes OMR, there is lockart oil cooler. Got some rust on rear fender, fork, spring on shocks etc. Will start to mess with it as get a chance.
