I had a yellow and green Z1 1973 that year an a few more. It was
surely one of the most good-looking bikes ever built. Coming
from a 650 Bonneville it was a rocket ship.
Still it had a flat spot around 3000 rpm which was about 80
km/h, right where you always seemed to be when overtaking. Revs
were important even for a big bike then.
The MT is more fun to ride, but not to look at.

I agree Z900 was and still is a good looking bike but saying the
MT-01 not good to look at strange that where I ever go people
just look at it and say that they like it
I think spec savers are doing 2 for the price of one maybe you
should pay them a visit [emoji2]

I was talking about the Z1, first year model, not the Z900 which
came later and was not at all as beautiful.
Besides, I only said the Z1 was better looking, not that the
MT01 was ugly.
Specsavers, pfft!

But they way to avoid or ease it is to hold clutch in and blip
and couple of times (lightly).
