Re: Someone got a good deal (on e-bay have you)

Why would you not hit it with some simple green and a pressure washer?

For sure, Was a pick up deal only, he would have gotten more if he shipped.IMO.... No speedo and cable either. Very hard to find part.

I think people do that on purpose sometimes just to hide flaws that are more likely to be noticeable when clean. Notice how the pics suck too.

Re: Someone got a good deal (on e-bay have you)

I was the winning bidder. I believe he is actually meeting up with me about half way which is cool. I got a bunch of parts for the bike already, I still have to order a ton more. This build will be on the back burner for a while. The lock set is missing from the bike, and the guy doesn't have a title. I just hope I can still register the bike. I am going to clean the bike like crazy when I get it, then remove the air box, rear rack, and rear fender. I will run a small UNI pod filter and I want to relocate the stock tail light into the indentation in the seat. Hopefully all goes well with the bike. The bike has pretty much everything I would need in a bike besides the lock set. I have a kitaco mascot headlight sitting here, but I don't think I want to use it on the zb.

I have for the bike:
ZB Headlight Bracket
NSR Forks
NSR Triples
NSR Axles
NSR Swing Arm
NSR Front Caliper & Bracket
NSR Rotors
Relocation bracket for NSR Swing Arm
Spacer to replace speedo sender
SS front brake line
ZX Clutch Lever
ZX Front Brake Master Cylinder
BBR Throttle Assembly
BBR Throttle Cable w/ carb top..... we will see if the carb top fits.
BBR Rev Box
Kitaco Coil

I still need:
Acewell ACE3200H Speedo/Tach
Honda Lock Set
UNI Pod Filter
NSR Wheels
NSR Rear Caliper, Bracket, & Line
NSR Rear Master Cylinder
NSR Rear Sets
NSR Clip Ons or Bars of some sort
Takegawa Headlight

Re: Someone got a good deal (on e-bay have you)

Sorry ryan, I really was going to pickup your h, but I saw this deal and couldn't pass it up. I still will probably get it in a bit if you still have it. I have to toss my Z50 on ebay first. I am ending up with too many bikes I like though, it is tough to pick which ones to keep. I may end up just getting some shocks from you. This fedex deal has me with more unfinished bikes than I would like to have. Hopefully the tank isn't too bad. If it is I want a white ZB tank.

Re: Someone got a good deal (on e-bay have you)

He is closing shop, moving to fl, and opening a shop there. He was saying that he had a few other rare bikes as shown in the pix, but I never heard of the others. It is a Z1000 right? It sure has a nice looking exhaust. I would email him. He seems like an alright guy.

Re: Someone got a good deal (on e-bay have you)

If I run a ZB speedo I will try to pickup a Monkey R bezel. I am definately liking the new Acewell Speedo for the price. It is just like the vapor, but something new never hurts.
