Cool bike....reminds me of my Dad's '78 CB750k. He eventually gave it to my brother who's a wizard w/ a wrench. He pulled the head, gave it a hone w/ some fresh rings & a new gasket...it ran like a champ after the that.

I gave my Rickman Z900 to the lad a year or 3 ago..still done anything with it..wish i had kept it now.

I would have had it back on the road...Mind, they were shit in a bend and the brakes were crap..

in a straight line in those days...Waaaaaaaaaaaa!... Bikes are much better today, we just we had the best then.

Funnily enough I ride with two guys on Classics one 1974 Norton Commando and one 1972 Triumph Bonnieville 650.    Both beautiful but both slow and temperamental as hell.     I love the look of them but that’s it I wouldn’t have one for regular transport.    They both handle better than you would think but shit brakes and the lads have to work them hard to keep up a moderate pace with the group.
