well, it was more of a put together, i bought it back in 1990 as an unfinished project form a guy in lowton, not too far up the road from where i live now, paid a grand for it, spent a few weeks with my buddies getting it all sorted, i wired it myself with black cable, in order to proceed i use white tipex to mark the cables, when i finished i removed the tipex and when things went wrong i was totally fucked, i had no idea what wire did what, it popped fuses for fun, blew coils, and leaked more oil than dallas, me and mojow went to the bulldog in 91, i rode the z9, on the way down the oil spilled all over the road and a jet of oil ejected from the gearbox, over my head, and into mojows face, he was like a scalded cat tyring to get his helmet off and cool his face, we are still good friends, i ran it for a few months then sold it to a kid who thought it looked like a harley, fuck knows what he was smoking, i know i was supposed to use a cb engine, but it was all set for the z900 and as i have no welding skills to speak of, and no cb engine, i left the z engine in it, i was a bastard to ride, me and mojow ran the east lancs road at about 90mph, i was bucking and bouncing all over the road, fuck knows how we survived the ride, be we are both still drawing breath, happy days and good memories, love you mojow
