A picture a day....biker banter (Vol 3)
Discussion
Little ride from Oxford to Aberystwyth today. It's a lot to do in a day and I'm knackered. The Welsh roads are awesome, smooth and twisty and compared to home empty.
This is a pic of the Elan Valley road on the way to Aberystwyth, again despite being a tiny road it's smoother than most A roads at home.
Met some lovely bikers on the way too and missed pretty much all of the rain, managed to drop the bike when I lost my footing/balance too. No real damage just a few scratches and a broken indicator lens.
Must do it again soon!

That road up the Elan Valley is just a delight.This is a pic of the Elan Valley road on the way to Aberystwyth, again despite being a tiny road it's smoother than most A roads at home.

It's a Z1 The Z900 came later. Virtually all were green metalflake with green and gold pinstripe...and a Z900 badge on the side cover. I think there was a maroon option...or that might just have came in with the Z1000? Plus the motors were all unpainted alloy - nothing painted black.
Not to say it's not a stunning bike...but a Z900 it aint. It's a Z1.

ETA Didn't the Z1 have a single front disc?
