This is what my 1st Z looked like. A few weeks after I got it, with the Napoleon Mirrors & dual Muzzy Slipons...



Here it is again after a few mods & ready for the track, right before I wrecked it.


I bought another Z (identical) so that I could transfer the surviving mods on to it... This is what it looks like now after all the mods where transferd. This one did come with an ultra light & trick full titanium Muzzy exhaust, and has Wave Rotors front & back...

I like the yellow monochrome scheme... I don't dig this new fad of gay flames happening right now with bikes... it's as gay as fur...

That is one nice TL... looks like it need a little TLC... no big deal, though. I'd keep it yellow... everyone that has a work in progress bike goes fro black cause it is EZ & Cheap to paint in black... not as many coats are needed.

2 years ago: 93 cbr 900 rr. had 929 tail held with self tap screws, yami exhaust that was held on with 2 rivits(you can see how good it held), and a rats nest for a wire harness. only reason i bought it was because it did run good.



today: 1999 tail with all the brackets and lock, 99 faring stay/headlight/upper faring/db windscreen, new wire harness and electrical. just got the front fender and awating mounting hardware to come in the mail.
