    Why not keep both?

    I too have a Wing.. a GL1200 Aspencade, but I still like to get the old Z750 out occasionally to put a smile on my face.

    Lets face it, although the wing is reliable (kinda, I just rebuilt my engine), comfortable, keeps you dry etc, its really boring to ride 😀

    Gt 185

    just finished a four year restoration

    down to bare metal, powder coated rebuilt, new seat, tank etc needs final polishing.

    But OH!! that glorious smell of two stroke in the air. mmmmmmmmm!!!

    however compared to the z750 its like riding a push bike and to the goldwing like sitting on a pencil strange it felt like a proper bike 36 years ago when i first rode one.

    mind you 4 stone lighter then.

    regards

    🙂 🙂

    Bought a Honda goldwing last november 2010

    1981 Gl 1100 interstate starts first time every time reliable and comfortable dry in the wet, motors on well. happy to get on do 200 miles and get off still able to walk.

    sorry to say Knocks the Z 750 into a cocked hat.

    If only i had a cocked hat think of all the room I could save.

    Anybody want to buy a KZ 750 that has had a lot spent on it.

    Regards

    Norman.
