[quote=murdoc62;2638792][QUOTE=menapia dude;2638619]This is the type of add that fuks up vintage and classic bikes,beggars belief how someone can put a 9500 price tag on a z9,


The z900 from 76 was a UK bike, the bike your man is floggin has a US spec rear mudgard and saddle plus orange reflectors which are only on the KZ model from across the pond. Now if that yoke was a 72-75 Z1 in that nick with all matching numbers including the pipes maybe 9k .......IMO....[/quote]

i disagree with u here a kz is way better bike in general than an english or irish z,roads weather stuff like that ,as with matching numbers and stuff this wont make the bike handle or go faster ,this is some of the insane resasons people price their bike out of the market,bikes are for riding end off,

classic lads always go for the first model year, reckon they are way more valuable but not necessarily better to ride etc, eg gt750 kettle the first year had drum brakes. '92 blade/'98 r1/'01 gsxr1000 all future classics....i've a few classics and the reason you dont ride em much is cos they are actually shite to ride!...better off lookin at them and occasionally starting em...... the trouble starts when you let out the clutch:lbhbh:....reckon that z900 will get close to that figure, know of a h1 750 made 10750 sterling out of ireland a while ago, mad or wha?
