funny thing about the zr7 its litteraly the last itteration of the famed GPZ, with some last refinements but alot of parts swap back n forth, still air cooled and 4 carbs...i put 15k miles on mine the first year i had it back n forth to canada to see my later to be wife(and her yairs)...im honda thru n thru so when an 07 interceptor fell in my lap i was more than ready to let go of the gpz..funny thing..i loved the engine and the brakes the rest of that interceptor was GARBAGE to me..it wasnt the touring bike i wanted or needed..it was too much "sport" and lacked comfort...while i could throw my gpz into the same conrer and predict the line id keep, the interceptor was undefineable with bumps n dips often shooting me across the centerline.....
as far as the monkey/50s, ive got a dozen of em or so, atleast 4 of them have come home on the back rack of my zr7....ive restored ive modded etc..but the lil 50s are a riot!...what i really want to lay my hands on is a "ZB50" few know it even existed..but its one of 2 itterations of the 50 i dont have..but the only 1 i truely still want
heres "happenstance"...i bought a truck load od 50 parts for 100$, and started sifting thru them, lots of engines n such i was wondering how much of a "complete" bike was in there too and layed this up, wife says ooooo thats really cool and i dig it, you need to build that..end result is 90% 50, engines a china 150 and wheels are IPT kids quad rear and drag front, the rest is all honda but not all 50
