nice bike!

 

[barnsey]

thats such a beast

 

[foolsp33d]

Wow Gnarly, what is your tank held on with!? looks like blue strapping!

Fast MC, Respect right there is that a +2 rear swinger? combined with the forks it gives a great overall stance! bet it handles awesome!!

mine looks like this now...

 

[FastMC]

Thanks...The swingarm is a Daytona +8cm with showa 285mm shocks. It does handle pretty well on the track although the rims are too narrow to handle a decent size tire. They will be soon replaced with Daytona 5 spoke rims in wide sizes.

hahah yeh its a blue occy strap
was a quick fix at the time
i love your exhaust fools33d whats it off?

 

[FastMC]

Sweet! looks like it would take a beating! what forks are they? wonder if the stock z rim would squeeze into em.. doubtful...

Forks and swingarm are from an old XR75 and the shocks are early CR80. It was a pretty good jumper till the shocks took a crap. Now they're pogo sticks !

how much can u pick one of these bikes up for??

will crf/xr 50 parts work on these
can u boar them out with a big boar kit

thx sam

 

[foolsp33d]

certainly can put bore kits thru them. Its basically the same motor as what the xr50 of today uses. Except ours are 2o+ years old. Frame and swinger have changed and crf;xr tank seat shrouds do not fit without modification. I'v got a bare frame{z5or 85ish model} and fork tubes available should you be interested, check the for sale section. Will also include the tank which i prefer over the j shape tank if the $ are right.

 

[sam i am]

i was thinking of a newer shaped model like the motard and jumper on the previouse page probably from 92 0nwards

thanks sam

Nah, it looked like this when i got it:

 

[foolsp33d]

Awesome resto mate! you should be Rapt!!! it looks a treat! did you take pics during the build? Should do a thread

keep them coming if there is more! everyone loves pictures of zeds!

Is it back to original or have you tweaked things a little internally?
funny its got a J tank on it! I want to use the R tank on my J frame, but the locating lugs are in a different location and it sits REAL far forward
