But Congrats Jim! Nice original example. I don't know the #'s But they did not have many green 73's in the USA did they?
I still cringe! Today when I see original motorcycles. And think back to all I dismantled!

Richie brought this bike over to my house the day he bough it, used and completely stock and told me to take it out for a beating.
It is still the fastest bike I have ever ridin and I have a real fondness for that color Z1.
Sadly 2 years later it was a black chopper :pinch:
Beautiful job Slimjjim and Bebe Long may she run!
