    Moto-Martin frame kit

    Any one have/had a Moto-Martin? I have just brought a "New,28 year old" frame kit. A guy has had it sitting in his garage for 28 years and finally decided to sell it. It is a frame kit for a Z900 motor. (I have a couple)
    I hope to have it ready for the road in a few months. Will add details as I learn about it.

    I'd be interested in seeing the progress.

    Progress is slow.... if not non-existant. I have dismantled the kit to repair storage damage. (rust) Had the forks hard chromed, now trying to get a rebuild kit for the original marzosshi 42mm forks. Stripped and repainted the Martin wheels. Now hope to find some worn out tyres to fit so I can move the kit around the cramped workshop. Because as you would expect, now is when my 78 Z1000 has decided to fry its electrics (30 years of neglect will make you pay) So Martin rebuild is on the slow burner as I rebuild the Zed properly for once...
