Newbie from New Zealand
Hi all. I'm the new owner of a well travelled XT600z. She has been from England to India and now resides in NZ. I just brought her off our version of flea-bay at a (get that bike out of my garage, its not moved since it got here) cheap price. She needs a bit of TLC but the bare bones are all there. Top notch, after market suspension and extras. Just a little unloved and neglected, sitting in the corner of a garage ( through Christchurchs earthquakes so some of the damage may have its own explanation)
It will be a change from my other bikes/projects but hey whats life without variation. Currently in the garage,, 77 ST70 honda monkey bike for party stupidity, like the homemade sidecar/chilly bin.
78 Z1000. my baby. being rebuilt properly this time...
a Moto Martin Z1000, I ended up with so many Zed spares I need to use some of them...
82 GPz 750. I needed something while other projects were off the road.
97 KDX200. You just need to get dirty sometimes.
and now a 88 XT600 tenere, well NZ has so many adventure roads its a crime not to go have a look but the Z1000 is getting too nice for gravel bashing.
Family and friends bleat about me having too many bikes? I'm now single and HAPPY! Whats the problem?
Time to go to the workshop....
