Sun Feb 18, 2007 6:20 pm
Well its finally done........ The front end project is finished ... now for that rear end!
The first ride today was ....WOW what a difference, she just soaks up the bumps compared to the dreded Z pogo... & the radial brakes are fantastic after spending considerable time with the bike on the bench waiting for the axel to be machiened I had plenty of time to extracate every single air bubble from the brake system... running motul race spec fluid she stops on a dime..... cant wait till the pads bed in they will be even better

i'd probably do the ZX6 or ZX10 conersion mate...
take my bike to a shop, and pick up a zx6 or zx10....
suspension problems sorted, and more ground clearance...

mmm clearance is a problem...You still cant go crim on us!
With my conversion I looked at the cost of the 07 Zed 750 a few grand after trade in & the cost of the conversion ...bout $1200 all up + the fact that the USD forks on the 07 zed are bottom of the barrel (gixxer 1000 USD forks are right up there) I think at the end of the day the conversion is a good investment
This is a bike I want to keep..... + the 07 Zed looks...well not my cuppa.

Left all the same except for fresh fork oil... will see how it goes before doing anything else. .... dave & I were talking about it the other day & without looking it up the weight should be about the same? but at the mement I am going to enjoy & make changes later.
