1973 Kawasaki Z1, Middleburg, Florida

Purchased this 1973 Z1 30 years ago, it had wrong motor, over the course of the next 30 years I purchased 60 new parts from Kawasaki dealer, then when I was to start restoring bike I had health problems, and then more health problems, when I started to restore and found out I needed another 50 or so parts, by this time I had to get most of them after market, which is still good, I also purchased a original Z1 motor 20 years ago with less than 1000 miles, fuel tank side covers and tail section painted parts are factory new, chrome fenders grab bar and all 4 mufflers are factory new, fork tubes upper and lower are factory new, cables factory new, all switches and wiring all new ( after market ) but good quality, tires are new but now old, mirrors are correct Z1 not KZ1000 mirrors, emblems, gas cap fuel tap are factory new, I have tool kit and owners manual, to make bike closer to perfect it needs spokes and rims but I ran out of steam, seat is original in good shape, turn signals and stems are Kawasaki parts not after market, lots of new nuts and bolts everywhere, and all rubber parts are new, it runs good and rides good, and looks good, but now I cannot ride, every nut and bolt and rubber part is put back together correctly as possible, I consulted a parts book every part I put on, frame # is Z1F13182 and engine # is Z1E10755.
