Pics of My ZB, Finally.

Here are some pics for you guys.....Sorry it took me so long, been working on this bad boy. I'm still painting the heat shield from the header so its not on the bike in the pics. Everything on the bike is original except for the chain, it runs like a top too. I love Honda's........Let me know what you think!

Very nice, I can't recall seeing that many with the stock blinkers either. Looks like a nice clean bike!

Re: Pics of My ZB, Finally.

Thanks for the compliments guys! It was enough work to keep me busy getting this thing back in shape. And yes, it does feel good to get it done! It felt even better when she fired up after I got the bowl filled on the first kick! I get down near Jacksonville every year for the 12 hours of Sebring. I stop through there to check out the beaches. HA! I'll have to hit you up for sure when I swing through next time, would be fun to cruise with some other ZB's.......

Re: Pics of My ZB, Finally.

Nice Zb, just noticed that there is no chain guard in the pic, if you dont have one i think it would be cool to get one cause it really brings out the stock look. But then again you have almost perfected the stock look...

Re: Pics of My ZB, Finally.

I have the chain guard for it, just not on right now till I find another 10mm Bolt for the back of it. It's missing one of the bolts and I really don't want to tear it up without both bolts on it. It didn't have the right mirror, but I am actively looking for one if anyone knows of where I can get one for it.....But overall not a bad ZB for free.......I still can't believe he gave it to me.

Free is a great deal.
I think the chain guard bolt is a special bolt and 6mm. Mirrors are still available from Honda.$15 each.check links.

Re: Pics of My ZB, Finally.

Once again, thanks TMas. If it wasn't for you showing me the light, riding my ZB wouldn't be possible brotha. Much appreciated! Since its a 6mil, I can swipe one of those from my KTM Parts bucket most definitly....
