Cracking bikes, you've made a super job of that.

It looks really good mate.Enjoy.I got one at 54 years old. Love that Harris, tried to get one but they are virtually none existent, I had Maxton fit cartridge to the front forks and rear shock, it actually feels great on the road, it runs a bit like shite, I think it has a slight air leak. Andy |

Yes in a word, I bought the exhausts from DK and they were pretty good condition, I had them cerakoted which then crazed, they re treated them (not as nice as the first time) they are lovely though.

Looks great, can’t beat a clean and tidy GPZ.
What’s the plan, a keeper or move it on?

Looks great, can’t beat a clean and tidy GPZ. What’s the plan, a keeper or move it on? Not sure yet, I have got to many things but its very nice to ride, its very comfy and it can get a move on if required and it actually handles and lets be honest, it looks fantastic. Not sure if its worth enough to move on either, I'd be guessing at what its worth. Andy |

Wow, that looks nice! This was the first bike I bought after I passed my test on a KH100 (jees, 1986, where did that go?). Yours is a lot prettier than mine ever was - especially after I used it to kill a Golf gti that pulled out on me  |

Its a very nice bike to ride just feels a bit slow, lots of people slag the pipe because of the dent, Cant wait till summer to ride it some more.
I have bought another which is currently a piss poor looking cafe racer, I only bought it the Harris exhaust it has on but I'm going to make a really fast retro looking cafe racer out of it, watch this space.

Good man Andy never mind the haters regarding the dent, you dont be looking at the mantlepice when poking the fire lol. All credit to you. My lc has a dent in the rhs exhaust i would love to chage it but have learned to live with it. It doesnt affect performace so what the hey not made of money either. Lovely bike enjoy.

Thanks, it was for sale for a while last year but its had such a lot spent on it now it would need to be loads or I'd be sick.
Plus its actually a great bike now.
