Ya I didn't really get why everyone was so crazy about Z1's until I read that article about them and search for them on youtube. There is this documentary like thing of them doing top speed tests at daytona on the first Z1's. Now I get it. Now I want one.

I just sit back and remember what my brand new 73 Z1 was like. I do have the Cycle mag with first year road test. I have had so many people tell me the Z1 was a POS, but none of them were even alive when I was riding mine....lol......chris3
