blackhat250 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Well " its taken 3 years,,, built from a box,, this became clear why it was chucked in a garage corner,, Bent valve - all rollers tensioners shot, non maching numbers ,and the wrong number plate, I think someone took all the good bits to build another Zed,,, it was a nightmare to register , Inspection - Nova, dating cert,,, all because of trying to register on that wrong plate,, it was off another Zed900. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dt502001 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 She's a beauty,they are worth a small fortune now and lots of collectors out there.So if your selling it go high,but have to agree with Drewps ride it for a bit at least and get something back other than just money.

sniff6 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I can remember having a go on a H2 750 many many years ago and i still remember how scary it was and how the frame seemed to be made of liquorice.I'd of sworn i was doing over a 100mph ,but looking at the speedo it was only 85mph lol.Love the sound of the kawa triples and the acceleration.
