Z1R resto
I’m about done with my resto, just a few things left. I picked it up in 1980 as a salvage bike from an insurance liquidator, bike had 62 miles on it. I don’t know if it had been sold and wrecked that quickly or if it was on a demo ride, in any case someone had painted it black with hand painted gold pinstripes before it was totaled. I followed that theme when I repaired it, a few years later I wanted something with more flash hence the black, red, yellow paint. Eventually I resprayed it with the stock color, and this last fall started to restore it.
