Default Z600, anyone?

Well, I went to a homecoming football game at my old highschool, long story short:

My old HS German teacher is still trying to give me her old Honda Z600, along with another Z600 parts car and a spare 600 engine. I thought I missed out on the deal a couple years ago, but she brought it up again.

I'm going to take them, if I can find a place to put them.

So, I'm back in the Honda world.

Anyone have any experience with "old school" Z/N600's?

Example:

Front:


Rear/Side:



(Yes, they are 10 inch wheels. Try finding tires for them!)

I don't think that engine bay is tall enough for a ZC...

Will 12 or 13 inch wheels off a later model fit?

Do it up Kai!

I think 13's fit with very low profile tires.

These things are powered by, basically, a 600cc motorcyle engine. They don't have much performance abitity, and the engine bay is a bit small to swap anything in.

Stock, they run a 23 second 1/4 mile. :naughty:
