Hello my couple of connections here. New project!
I am in need of an ugly scored 6 bolt Z1 7mm brake rotor.
As I will separate it, Blanchard grind it down to 5 mm and custom drill it and turn off  3/8 - 1/2? inch off of the diameter.
I have a Z1 hubbed 18" x 40 spoke Akront wheel. Along with an old Kosman hub and double weld rear.
I'm going to combine it with a vintage BETOR (Spain) Old dirt bike 35mm front end and a small Performance Machine, small 1/1/4" puck caliper.
Sorry Men! It's going on  Vintage early Sportster drag bike. I always wanted an early distributor style for using a Magneto. They were 1957-69/70
It will be rolling on Z1 wheels!!
I need something to work on! Garage Therapy!  A  1 year project!    2 - ???

Nope.

He divested himself of all his Z-bike stuff a couple months ago, even his Z1 frankenbike, to some guy in OH he talked to at Mid-Ohio last summer.  We'll keep an eye out.

Thanks Jim! I reached out to the "OINKJOHNSON GANG"
Now I also need a 73 Z1 / H2 style bubble top front brake master cylinder cover for painting!

Well? Been awhile! I guess no parts here?
But I reached out by other means. And I got my Z1 disc & an early brake reservoir cap.
I had painted 2 caps, the flat and rounded early style with my 1st batch of Cerakote. Great Stuff!
BUT! This Z1 disc is nicer than I planned! I wanted a crap, ugly one to surface, Blanchard grind down to 4.75mm.
This disc has a 1973 #8  (8 K) date code. for 1973!  And it is in very nice shape. Very savable!
So I'm going to clean it up on the lathe, and blast and paint center with my next batch of Cerakote Paint. Along with an early 73 valve cover, with polished ends. Plus Clay from Kansas has a few parts I am going to do for him as a favor.
I know I gave up FB for a while. but might have to jump on again for more exposure for parts?
So! I still need a crappy Z1, H2, H1,  6 bolt hole - disc rotor.
I'm never bored!  I need a 36 hour day!

Let me look. I bought a front rim complete but I don’t see a date on the rotor. Strange!

5D April 1975 dated rim.
