Great watch Michael the Kawasaki zeds where my dream bike back in those days and now I still have a soft spot ,the closest I got was a Z650 which was a great bike but just could not run to the 900 and funnily enough it is still the case 😉some really interesting bikes there maybe I'll get down there next year to see the auction it would be good fun looking around all those classics .Many thanks 👍

Thank you ! Always good to hear from you . I liked my Z650 but didn't have it long . I got a job in a Honda shop and funnily enough they wanted me to run a Honda ..😂

These kind of videos are great, keep on the good work!

Hey Michael one thumb way up on this one lol I find that the best part of these auctions are the walks down memory lane. Thank you for yours. Couple things that sparked mine was 1975 I was a sophomore in school. Best times in mhop. Had a rich friend that got a Pontiac Firebird that year for his birthday. It was black with the gold eagle. Wrecked it 1/2 mile down the road from my house. lol The little mini's my friend and I would ride them(in grade school) behind his house try jumps on them. Broke everything off them and ruined shocks, tires. His dad was the best fixing the bikes for us. I can still remember him laughing about our madness. Miss him terribly.

Always great to hear from you Leigh . A lifetime of bikes and an auction always triggers memories- Walking around I remember things I haven’t thought about for years 👍

Wonderful Michael. Loved watching that video. Amazing what some of these motorcycles sold for. Very interesting, thanks for the brilliant commentary and your own personal stories too.

@@michaelmam Quite a lot to talk about when you see so many classic machines in one place. I was waiting for you to tell us which one you bought…..😉 alas it wasn’t to be.

Great video as always, many thanks.

Thank you Peter . You are very welcome .

Another good video Michael, thanks 👍🏼 I've been keeping an eye on Z1s for sale and it seems there are very few 'British' ones. Like you, I immediately notice the reflectors on the forks and rear suspension as the obvious tell tale sign of an import, but didn't know about the strap on the seat. I had a blue 1975 Z1B (when I was 18 😆) so am attracted to them and was interested to see that one you looked at here. It seems that excellent condition imports are going for about £20k, somewhat different from the £1,249 they were new in 1975, but mint 'British' ones are like hens teeth!

Thanks Brian . A lot of the British ones didn’t survive our salted roads and of course there were a lot more sold in America. That Z1B was a nice one .👍

Great video, the two I would live would be the RC30, but in reality, it would be a Guzzi Le-man's 1

Hi David . Both great bikes . A good day out .. 👍

Really enjoyed the video! It did not appear that you have any of the classic aircooled bikes in your garage (previous video). Or do you have them in another garage?
