hi everybody.
i bought my ZB for $750.it a bit beat up but im going to fix that.
i started removing parts so i can clean it up and get it ready for paint.
i noticed that my petcock was leaking gas so i went to a local honda dealer to see if i could ordered a new one.it turned out that honda had only one left in stock and it was in vancouver, so i bought it. aaahhhh it feels so good to get the last one.today i picked it up.im so lucky.

Bike looks pretty good. My local Honda dealer says Honda Canada has more ZB petcocks on the way.

well in going to paint the frame,tank,swingarm,and re-do the seat.
i still havent chosen any colors.
my petcock leaks from behind the face where it shows the on position.it looks like one of the rivet screws have come loose .im going to try to fix it first and keep the new one as a backup spare.
