Lose the pillion part of the seat and shunt the tailpiece forwards, if you look in the Zed specific gallery there's a satin black ally framed spondon replica Zed with Z1R tank, and a single seat with the J series tailpiece, K series radial front end, monoshocked etc etc. That look works well giving it the classic musclebike look but more squat.
I think i know the bike ur talking about... Off to find it now.
glad u staying with the gpz tail mate done right they just work
Yeah mate I don't know what I was thinking! All that other shit was way to modern!!!
I had a bit of a play with the linkage today, trying to figure out if it will work with YAMMYS new system where the dogbone bolts to the swinger not the frame:
I'm sure with some playing it will be fine.
And thought I'd throw the forks in place just to keep me inspired:
When you look at the distance between the back wheel and the frame, u can see how much the wheel base will be lengthened, so the tail may not need a chop......

Picked up my seat today, I thought I was picking up a standard B1 seat, so you can imagine how fuken happy
I was when the guy pulled this off his top shelf.....
$35 bucks thanks for coming!
The foam is sweet so it just needs to be re covered.
I'm obviously doing a Eddie paint job, so should I replace the red portion of the seat with green or keep it all black?
Give Kev,the seat guru, a call and see what he reckons with his multitude of different seat covering material. But whatever colour you decide I think it would look so much better if you got GSX sewn into it ��
