New to the 600 Scene

Post by agraygoat »

Hey everyone. I've spent the last few couple of weeks reading through a bunch of old posts. Very cool stuff.
Reading through all of these posts makes me wonder how many of you folks are still out there (I hope there are still a bunch as I can use any help I can get). A friend's parents passed on their 1972 Z600 to me, with the hopes that I could make her run again. I was originally going to try to fully restore her, but I don't know how realistic it's going to be. I have a lot of things going for me (e.g. friend owns a body shop, I am half-mechanically inclined, and I like to get dirty).
Anyway, I just wanted to share some pics with you folks.

P.S. I spotted a Z600 in San Bruno, CA (USA) today. It's orange and is on the street. I'm guessing, but it looks like the guy also had a N600 under the covers. I think the owner's name was William. I left a note in his mailbox... yeah, I'm that desperate for friends locally in the 600 community.

Looks a heck of a lot better than the one I picked up 10 months ago.  It had been sitting since 1986.  After a few weeks of piddling with it and some good words of advise from some folks on this site it was moving under it's own power once again.

That's pretty inspiring. I hope my Z600 will be running shortly too. I'm pretty busy during the day and the night, but I try to squeeze in what I can. I'm a sucker for pictures. You have any links to your pictures?
