Description

47 years old and the machine runs wonderfully. An absolute head-turner among classic motorcycles. It was maintained by the previous owner and by me as well. It is always kept dry in a garage. I replaced the generator, rectifier, and battery on the machine. The parts were old and had to be replaced. The rectifier now once again supplies a stable 13.5–14.5V. Finding replacement parts was actually quite easy and straightforward. Since it has the engine that was also used in many other Z1000s from those years, you can find virtually everything you need in terms of typical wear parts. The motorcycle starts immediately both at the push of a button and with the kickstarter, and runs without any problems. I also retrofitted an oil temperature gauge so that the temperature can be kept an eye on hot days. A test ride is definitely possible. The TÜV has just expired, but it could still be renewed if there is serious purchase interest.

Reason for sale: I would like to sell this motorcycle as well as my other one due to family planning, which is why I will no longer be riding at all.
