No wonder our GPZ's can't sell...

[John Soliday]

I agree the fellow really took care of it!  What's weird about changing
rings and valves is why not a big bore rebuild once you have it all apart?
When I've torn down bike engines, the pistons really needed to be replaced
(piston clearance/slap issues).  It seems like he built it like a Chevy V8
vs. a high RPM engine, maybe it was babied it's whole life I guess.

I was thinking the same thing myself, but it is extremely well cared for..
Valves have been replaced, as well as piston rings and all gaskets at 43k or
so. It seems to have been loved.

Wow, 83K on that ZX900???  Looks in very good condition for that kind of
mileage but I'm sure that mill is tired by now.

On that note, I thought I would share my market-watch items:
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/mcy/1664312104.html

I know it's not a geeper, per se, but it is...

I got a very large picture of this one fm the owner, as I am looking. 

I am liquidating my guitar this week to try to pick it up... It is
beautiful, and I hate to share it, but, there it is. 

****BTW, any Geeper aficionados who are Ibanez guitar aficionados:  I have
an Ibanez
Vinnie Moore signature guitar in PERFECT condition... If you know what it 
Is, you know what it is... $1200... hasn't been played in over a year, and 
Is set up with Diadario 8's.  Stock and all original.

Jeez, I'm keeping the GPZ as they must be worth next to nothing after seeing
this...
