need help identifying

have this lone pic of the old lady's dad's z1 (the bike she wants to commemorate with that frame i recently picked up)

the only big question I have (other than who wants to part with a motor they've been using as a door stopper? oops, that didn't work) is what chain guard is that? looks almost stock but it's obviously chrome???

and yes, those are period correct mods of changing the seat, wheels front end and brakes that was done before I was anywhere around.

wheres the pic?

nvm there it is, i dunno but thats either a suzuki wheel or an abe wheel set i think

That was a nice looking bike,Ive seen chain gaurds like that before just cant think of if they were aftermarket or not.
I think z1kzonly has the same chain guard on that 900 hes been trying to sell

I have a chain guard like that some where , not sure if i have it on a bike or not. I think its after market. I lost all my pictures and everything on pc from a crash. will walk over and look tomorrow.

they are in fact henry abe wheels, google search confirms it, i love the front but the back just dont flow for me....

well apparently I am blind afterall, those are abe wheels.

Like I said, that chain guard has me baffled, wish I had better pics, or a chance to look at his bike, i take that back, just want the bike...

so, most likely it's gonna be an aftermarket piece, looks a lot like that plastic one that's actually on that frame i got.

something of a resemblance I suppose?

what's really fun though, is I have 3 pictures of this bike in it's latest form, and not a one of them is from the right side, don't know if it had a rear drum or disc now that I think about it, and I started out wrenching on bikes on it for crying out loud... I used to have a good memory.


go figure

That's a drum brake on that rear mag of yours

so long story short that extra ltd swinger, wheels and front end I've got rustled up isn't getting used on the old lady's tribute bike, if it's build to be like her dad's... :ohmy:

There is one of those chain guards on eBay listed under KZ900. I had one on a bike. They are heavy. Roy
