In my living room. :D I had to shuffle a bunch of bikes today so I could put my Z1 in the house. I finally put gas(bottle fed)and oil in it after building it last year. It fired right up and runs beautifully. I emptied out the gas in the carbs and now it's in the house. This was the first time I had all my 900s in the same place.

Z1, Z1A, Z1B(the only one left to bring back alive), KZ900(it will have new green tins and new exhaust in a few weeks), and the 1976 LTD. The LTD needs a bath. :oops:

When this obsession started I was looking for an H2A like I had when I was a kid. I have 14 triples and still no H2A. :cry: I would part with my very nice original Z1A(or other bikes, who knows, ;) )to get one. The Z1 though, isn't going anywhere soon. 8-)

Welcome to the club, sir. I have 11 motorcycles in my front room, and about 35 bicycles. Hey...I'm a collector.

I don't know what they are but I can imagine they make my Z1 look rather ordinary. :mrgreen:

Looks good in their GUTS, but would look better on the street.

Tuner - you have to post a pic of that!
