    In November, four guys from the tauranga area stopped here on their way to the Burt Munro. One was riding a just completed Crosby built Z1.

    By the 3rd day of the trip (at my place) it obviously needed the points resetting and the camchain tensioner adjusting plus there was an exhaust leak.

    I wasn't game to ask what it cost....but I heard on friday that the figure in the ad of around $25 grand is close.....

    The one I saw was absolute bone stock - even down to the tyres which are apparently being remade in japan. Not my cup of tea, I'd fit a dyna as an absolute minimum.

      So he is a way better rider than a builder, Wonder how much he really does on building the bike. Starting to sound like Harleys, Twice the price there really worth.

        I couldn't fault the build,Sharpy, but i suspect the quality of the parts available....back in the day as i remember it, the points would go for ever without adjustment so I suspect one set had a soft heel...
        I'm told they did a service on it when they stopped the next night but they had to live with the exhaust leak until they got home and could replace gaskets.
