welcome to the madhouse, nice looking Zed too

Thanks Mark, not bad for a mix of Z and ZZR bits, it rides great and stops very well with H**** blackbird M/C and calipers and EBC pro-lite discs.

Nice bike. I was concerned about joining a Z1 owners club with a very none standard J2, but it turned out there are a lot of heavily modified bikes here, and very nice they are too. Makes me think I should of paid more attention to mine when I was restoring it to a rideable condition. Trouble is I'm enjoying riding it so much I don't want too take it off the road again. One day perhaps.

I just wanted to build something with practical upgrades - being able to fit modern rubber was one requirement, modern brakes was another. ZZR bits (wheels, forks, swinging arm) are cheap as chips, I got the lot for 200 quid, but are more than up for the job so happy days (although the front brake system is from a Blackbird)!. Personally I dont like the modded Zeds with upside down forks and all the sparkly bits, just a matter of taste I guess. I also wanted something that I could ride all year round so lots of stainless and hardly any chrome.
