I have three other Kawasaki Zed projects, all at various stages of completion, so I need another like I need a hole in the head.. But there comes a time with each project when you cant do much. Maybe waiting for a part, or work to be done you cant do yourself, lots of reasons why work can't progress. Meanwhile, my consultant told me to do more of what I like, and less of what I don't like.. so doctors orders I go an start another project I guess..
I'm always looking for the next project, on Ebay or via friends, so had made a couple of bids on bikes 'that need work' on Ebay. One was a rough looking Kawasaki Gpz 750 Turbo, while the other was a basket case seventies Z1000. Both sold for far more than I though was sensible. I kept looking. Decided to built another ground up restomod, so rather than buy an overpriced basket case, most of which will be replaced, I bought this instead..
Its a 1978 Kawasaki Z1000A1 frame, all complete and straight, a little surface rust, imported from the US. Its a start..
Already started buying stuff for it, but wont do any real work on this one till the other Zeds are done... tho said that last time....
