1978 Z1R Oil Pan

Post by ianp »

Hi guys,

Does anyone know if the Oil Pan on the Z1R D1 was painted black or unpainted?

Thanks,
Ian.

Many thanks - I had painted the rest of the motor and the oil pan was unpainted when I pulled it apart, but it looked a little odd on the engine stand with the pan "au natural".
Will look different when it is back in the frame I guess - hopefully this weekend.
Cheers guys.
