It's no looker, but It sounds kinda neat at 15,000rpm.....lol. Maybe take the long way to Cayuga, and "run what we brung" on a Friday?

It's ALIVE. Thanks to the Millgrove Magician (if you know, you know), the little CB1 fired up today, after sitting since 2014. So glad. Fork seals & tires later this week & safety asap after that. Gettin' itchy.

If this was listed in Canada........... https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1975-kawasaki-z1-900-16/

Huh?.........What? Carb bits were bathing in an ultrasonic cleaner today, and is all back together on the bench. For the first time since '14, it might be running tomorrow.......fingers x'd. Gotta love expert help.

Not an easy watch.....

Too many "rr"........they cost money.

I'm almost ready to insure my barn find. I've shopped it around & found the best quote coming from TD.(highest from somewhere was $1850/yr) I'll be 70 next week.

Mine came this morning, from Revco. It's what I ordered, but I'm gonna hack an inch offa da bottom to save weight....

I'm waiting on something from here at the moment. UK. First time I've used the site. DHL service. https://www.wemoto.com/

There was about 2L of leftover gas that I removed today, and the petcock was bone dry, and operational. Tomorrow.....the gas tank gets a soapy bath, rinse and an isopropyl rinse.

Indeed. Hopefully this week. This is some of the 9yr old gas/tea/varnish. Particle free though, and I can't see a spec of rust inside the tank.

I still have some of this from the 90's.....then it became unobtanium for a bit. I see it's available again. It's very good. https://www.rona.ca/en/product/dupont-311g-multi-use-performance-lubricant-dm0611201-30738041

Mine came with extras......no sign of life.

If you order by 2pm, stuff usually shows up next day..... https://www.autopartsway.ca/?srsltid=AfmBOoobi5VlnH-hJpmoa-NOj11CsMc0LkPihNQ9ah1C8gCtYNs8ygzB

It's showing 50,400kms. I don't think it's been painted? It's the darker blue, not the powder blue. If it gets painted, I think it's going to be the dark gray that a few came with. I thought the tail plastics were mint........I was wrong.....lol.

Often the banner ad at the top of the page has the man you're looking for......Mathew Camacho at Billyard Ins.

I think it's got good potential, if it runs.....and by the way it cranked, I'm not too concerned. Carbs need doing, as does gas tank, but there's zero signs of rust in it, hint of varnish odour, but not nearly as noticeable as I was expecting. The fender has a crack, sadly, but the seat cowl...

It's probably the most fun I ever had riding a bike. ~2011, at deals gap, I swapped my busa for a CB1 for about an hour. I've wanted one since. It's going to take a bit to get it back on on the road. Been stored since '14. But. We put a battery to it before I payed, and it spun like it can't...
