Z1E has decals for that year that I've been considering , don't know how easy it is to do though.

get a spray bottle with and put a little dish soap and plain water and a bondo spreader (3m sqeegy is the best) sray both sufaces and squeegy out the water after you get it set thats how the shops doi it with large decals lessens the chance for ruining them

It would be a good idea to pull it up on the center stand and check the steering head bearings.
