Nice bike Nasty. I've always prefered the clasics. I sold my Z1 last fall. I still have the wheelie bar if your interested. I'll let it go cheap. I hate to see it go to waste. Its a chome moly Pingle, Chrome plated with struts.

I've had 2 Z1Bs' and loved them both. Kawasaki definetly had the market at one point in time with the fast big CC bikes. The one thing I really hated though about them though, was that you could get some good speed out of them, but the steering head bushings were to small and always developed slop. Slop + Speed = BIG OOPS! I did have money down on a brand new Z1R Turbo but decided against it, and at that age it was probably one of the smartest things I have ever done. But still love the crotch rockets, now I ride an RF900 and I'm almost 40 .

I hated selling my bike, but since I had kids I just didn't have time to ride it anymore. I sure do miss it sometimes. My favorite part was blowing away kids on croch rockets.
