    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I was so mesmerized looking at the Z1(B) that I didn't notice the silver engine.

There's very little that can be done to a Z1 to make it undesirable.
 
Damn, that is a heck of a haul! Congrats!
Always good to see bikes like those fall into the right hands. :)
 
Very much like the Kawasaki !
You have a similar project to my GPZ 750 R1. monster bikes and is taking me a monster amount of time !

Quick flip for profit without getting your hands dirty equals a job well done.

Now you can dump the profit into the Cooley! What are the plans for it? Restoration or resto-mod?

Looks to be in nice shape, maybe a bit too nice for a resto-mod.

I say flip it for a modest profit, maybe trade some guy the cooley for a couple bikes plus cash and continue the search for a resto-mod candidate.

Of course, the challenging part will be finding a guy who is interested in that kind of deal (my pm box is clear:p).

Exactly the plan Ed, leaning towards a stock restoration.

Cooley came with a 9 out of 10 set stock pipes and a set of NOS mirrors so I might b inclined to head further in that direction.:)

Great buys, all, Joe. The Kawi's (especially the 900 and the H1) are very cool..would make nice resto mods, and the Cooley..congrats. I know you've been on the hunt for some time now. It looks very nice. Glad the search is over. I've followed your progress on the Resto-Mod site and always enjoy your projects.

That would be nice! I tracked down the guy that painted your 700 and he said that due to EPA regulations, he is pretty much done with that type of paint and work.
